A strange php question.

I have a thing here.

The page prints out a message that has many php queries and other stuff in it.

Example:

php:

<?=commas($somestuff[5]+$somestuff[26]+$somestuff[27]/*$lol1+$lol2+$lol3+$lol4+$lol5*/)?>
 </font>
 went and knocked out (

  <? if($somestuff[5]>0){?>
  <font color="#FFFFFF">
  <?=commas($result[5])?>
  </font>  guys
  <? } ?>

  <? if($somestuff[26]>0){?>
  <font color="#FFFFFF">
  <?=commas($result[26])?>
  </font>  girls
  <? } ?>
etc etc etc

PHP:

While the HTML message that would be printed on the screen would look like:

 xx went and knocked out xx guys xx girls etc... 

HTML:

So that said. My question is the following:
Can I make the HTML a variable and put into the database? Not the php, only the html. Example: 145 went and knocked out 34 guys 22 girls.
(those examples were just part of the long long code)
If that can't be done I will have to make a nother text and pull each variable separately and insert to db..

Thanks.

 

Yes:

<?php
ob_start();
?>
<?=commas($somestuff[5]+$somestuff[26]+$somestuff[27]/*$lol1+$lol2+$lol3+$lol4+$lol5*/)?>
 </font>
 went and knocked out (

  <? if($somestuff[5]>0){?>
  <font color="#FFFFFF">
  <?=commas($result[5])?>
  </font>  guys
  <? } ?>

  <? if($somestuff[26]>0){?>
  <font color="#FFFFFF">
  <?=commas($result[26])?>
  </font>  girls
  <? } ?>
etc etc etc
<?php
$variable = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();

PHP:

$variable will contain the info.

Peace,

 

Thanks!!!!

 

I have a weird issue.

<?php
ob_start();
?>
*my php stuff*
<?php
$variable = ob_get_contents();
?>

PHP:

It works when I try to echo $variable but when i use a mysql insert command nothing but blank will go into the database...
