O wait... I think I see what you're saying... the database actually has an
entry in it that is '$title', not the value of $title... what you need to
do is run eval('echo ' . $num['sub']) instead of the print command you've
got right now (note: print/echo makes no difference for this example; just
my personal pref to stick with echo).
