make a datbase and read from ?

[bobheart]

I have a bunch of stuff i would like to put in some kind of database and then just put in a input box the word to search and show .

(ackground_color) = Background color for the room.

So if you put in ackground_color it shows Background color for the room.

I look at this one not sure who did it now ?

But I don't know if it will work for what I want to do ?

Will this work for what I want to do ? and what would go first from the $ ackground_color part or the Background color for the room ?

No you didnt understand what I'm trying to do.

You the search word would be background_color and the Answer would be

Background color for the room see what I mean now ..

Or question is = draw_arc(x1,y1,x2,y2,x3,y3,x4,y4)

answer is = Draws an arc of an ellipse. .

That referanced line of code is not valid. If your line begins with a variable, you should have an equals "=" symbol after, and then define the variable. Neither of which you did. Prehaps you ment for that line to be a comment? If not, you need fix the line to make it a valid command (like $var = 1 )
