Re: [PHP] name of the variable

[Ólafur Waage]

I found this on the zend forums. Hope it helps.

function Dump($var) {
        if (key_exists($var, $GLOBALS)) {
                echo "<pre>$$var:\n";
                var_dump($GLOBALS[$var]);
                echo "\n</pre>\n";
        }
        else
                echo "<span class='error'>No variables named 
<em>$$var</em>!</span>\n";
}

Hi everyone,
Is there any function that return the name of the variable??
i.e.

$foo='abc';
$bar=somefunc($foo); // $bar='foo' here

Thanks
