It might be the lack of sleep but… This is not supposed to work?

I’ve never had to actually write my own function in EE so I might be missing something super obvious… but I’m doing something a little complicated and need to get this working. I’ve simplified the test to the max… Thanks!

This echoes “nope” ...

The real case scenario is a function to which I need to pass some EE template tags as arguments…

I’ve passed the global as an argument as a workaround, like

But that means I have to process $t every time in the function instead of once… I hope there’s some obvious way of doing what I need and that I’m just too dumb to know about it ;)

Thanks!

I have just had the same problem. The file I am running is set to PHP on Input.

Found the solution at

Apparently you have to use $GLOBALS so ...

$GLOBALS[‘xxx’] = array(“1”,“2”);
a();
b();
function a()
{
  global $xxx;
  array_push($xxx,“S”);
}
function b()
{
  global $xxx;
  echo($xxx[2]);
}

will echo out “S”.

Thanks for posting back here :)
