Hi David,

How can I use the a certain record output (ex: print $record["NAME"]) from parse function A as variable into another parse function B?

Thanks Ron

Hello Ron,

All you need to do is use global variables to transfer data from one function to another. For example:

<?php
  $name = "";
  function myRecordHandlerA($record)
  {
    global $name;
    $name = $record["name"};
  }
  function myRecordHandlerB($record)
  {
    global $name;
    // here you can use $name from handler A!
  }
?>

Hope this helps,
Cheers,
David.
