I am trying to declare a function parameter inside my array, but I'm having trouble getting it to work. I've trimmed it down for simplicity purposes, and I have something like:
function taken_value($value, $table, $row, $desc) {
$value = trim($value);
$response = array();
if (!$value) {
$response = array(
'ok' => false,
'msg' => "This can not be blank."
);
} else if (mysql_num_rows(
mysql_query(
"SELECT * FROM $table WHERE $row = '$value'"))) {
$response = array(
'ok' => false,
'msg' => $desc." is already taken."
);
} else {
$response = array(
'ok' => true,
'msg' => ""
);
}
echo json_encode($response);
}
Notice the function parameter $desc trying to be used in the array here:
'msg' => $desc." is already taken.");
The whole function works fine EXCEPT when I try to add the $desc to the array results.
How could this be done?
