Re: Function not returning

Thanks, that all works now.

Can you explain though why it wasn't returning $reply?

This is an assignment; it should read:

if ($mike == "hello"){ ...

Tip: Set the fixed value before the variable to prevent mistakes like
these in the future:

if ("hello" == $mike){ ...

//test.php
<?php
include("functions.php");
$mike = "hello";
test($mike);
echo $reply;

The test function returns a value, so the proper coding would be:

$reply = test($mike);
echo $reply;
