I don't really need to do this, but I was wondering. Is there some way
of obtaining a list of all the variables that have been declared in a
PHP script ?

Ie. for globals you have $_GLOBAL, is there something that would let you
know the name of all variables that have been declared?

Ta.

get_defined_vars

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.4, PHP 5)

get_defined_vars - Returns an array of all defined variables
Description
array get_defined_vars ( void )

This function returns a multidimensional array containing a list of
all defined variables, be them environment, server or user-defined
variables, within the scope that get_defined_vars() is called.

Interesting. And a function for getting defined functions and
classes... nice. As I say, don't actually need to use them at the
moment but that's good to know they are there!

So many functions, I should randomly read through the manual and ponder
over what's there :-)

That would be get_declared_classes and get_defined_functions.

You should really start reading the manual completely ;)
