call a define by using a vairable ?

[k0r54]

Hi,

Ok senario: -

I have a notice page that i can link to and i also have a define like this : -

define('NOTICE_1', 'Msg 1')
define('NOTICE_2', 'Msg 2')

I refer to the notice page and put a $_get variable in to say the notice_id
How can i call the notice by using the $_get???

So in a sence i want to display

NOTICE_$_GET['notice_id']

so if the notice_id = 1 it will call the deifne NOTICE_1
but that obviously doesn't work!?

Thanks

I believe you could use the constant() function for this. An untested example:

if(isset($_GET['notice_id']) and defined('NOTICE_'.$_GET['notice_id']))
{
$value = constant('NOTICE_'.$_GET['notice_id']);
}
else
{
# either set $value to default value or generate error, as appropriate
}
