Re: [PHP] using a variable to a function call

[Edward van Bilderbeek - Bean IT]

isn't it the easiest way to do something like this:

class test {
    function do ($var) {
        if ($var=='you') {
                $this->you_function();
        } else {
                $this->me_function();
        }
    }

    function you_function() {
        ...
    }

    function me_function() {
        ...
    }
}

$class = new test();

$class->do($var);


Greets,

Edward
