Can I use variable function names in PHP?

Philip Olson, Nathan Wallace,

Try something like the following:
    $fn_name = 'myfunc';
    $result = $fn_name($arg1, $arg2);
Then the function called myfunc (specified in the variable $fn_name)
will be called.  The above will be just like doing :
    $result = myfunc($arg1, $arg2);
Also, be sure to check out :
