I am trying to set a variable as a string and then use that variable in a while loop function.
<?php
$assoc = <<<'EOF'
$users[]=array('name'=> $row['name'], 'foreman_position'=> $row['foreman_position'], 'status'=> $row['status'], 'emp_num'=>$row['employee_num'],'sen_num'=> $row['seniority_num']);
EOF;
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo $assoc;
}
When evaluated I would like it to look like this:
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$users[]=array('name'=> $row['name'], 'foreman_position'=>
$row['foreman_position'], 'status'=> $row['status'], 'emp_num'=>
$row['employee_num'],'sen_num'=> $row['seniority_num']);
}
If I put the syntax in by hand it works fine but the variable is expressing as the string. Any help is greatly appreciated.
