i'm doing something like the following

$dictionary=array(
1=>"word1",
2=>"word2",
3=>"word3",
4=>"word4",
5=>"word5",
6=>"word6");

I might change the contents anytime, inserting a word between 1 & 2, or moving word3 to be displayed after word5 etc..

it's very troublesome to change a code everytime,
so is there anyway that i can read from a conf file, and insert everyline from conf file to the array?

i only have to write:
word1
word2
word3
word4
word5
word6
in my conf file, and it will be inserted into my array according to the sequences in the conf file.

thanks

You question is not that clear..but still based ona guess like
if you want to insert some values into an array based ona sequesnce from a conf file you have to check the order in the conf file first and the use array_push() function to insert the value.

I don't have a ready example to show you, but what you'll need to do is read in the file, Use the Explode Function to convert the text to an array.
$array = explode("\n", $string); arguments are 'delimiter' and 'string to explode'
use array_push to add variables to the array.
use the implode function to rejoin the array.
write the array back to the file.

thanks rajest & savbill,

i've found out another way to do it, that's with eval()
experimenting everything now
