You may wish to consider why you need to pass 30 lines of code in a
variable.
If the code is static, store it in include files and then pass it in
depending one a variable
if ($variable=1)
{ include(your30linefile);
}
else
{ inclue(someotherfile);
}
or to use a database query, pass a select value in as the index:
$sql = "select some_field from table where id_field = $variable
either way, you pass the value of $variable in from a page with this kind of
link:
<a href="page_name.php?variable=1">click me to submit $varible=1 to
page_name.php</a>
If the 30 lines of code is html that needs to be generated on the fly, break
it up into common blocks and drop them in using either method above.
You can also do things like passing a hidden form field instead of using a
link.
