$b = 'abc $a def';
$a = 'whatever';
Actually, what I think you'll end up with needing is more like:
eval("$c = \"$b\"");
You can't just eval($b) because that would be like typing:
You need something roughly equivalent to:

but:

doesn't do what you like (and this is more likely your problem!)
this is the clue:
$a = 'whatever;
$b = 'abc $a def';
echo eval($b);

$b = "abc $a def";
That gets parsed because it's in double-quotes. Since $a is a variable, it
inputs whatever $a is, in this case "Whatever". So it ends up printnig out
"abc whatever

All,
This ought to be simple, but I can't crack it...
I'm trying to read a plain text file where I embedded some variables. E.g.
abc $a def
Sucking this file in a string and setting $a to "whatever" results in "abc $a def"
rather than "abc whatever def". Where's the difference to directly doi
