Well, I was looking through the PHP documentation, and I came across a neat function called parse_str. I was wondering, would it be wise to use this for storing, and using database details?

PHP Code:


			
$str = "host=localhost&user=root&pass=pass&name=db_name";



parse_str($str);

Then:

PHP Code:


			
echo "$host, $user, $pass, $name";

Would output "localhost, root, pass, db_name."
