You can't. You can, however, have a config.php or type page that's include()'d on every page in your site where you define these variables. For things like this that you draw from the database, it would be a good idea to query once and add to the session. I find it useful to use something like a $_CONF[] array. $_CONF['user'] = 'user'; $_CONF['path'] = '/home/user/htdocs/'; etc... ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
