DEFINE - why won't it work?

[770]

My script reads:

define ("WEEK", $week);
if (defined(WEEK)){
echo "week IS defined.";
}

I never get to the echo; Why is my define failing?

The argument of defined() must be quoted:

 define ("WEEK", $week);
     if (defined("WEEK")){
    echo "week IS defined.";
     }

try that...

cheers

The use of a defined constant allows you to just type the constant name in the code:

define("MYCONSTANT",'whatever');
echo(MYCONSTANT);
