Basically:
* quoting with ' is when you just literally want that string
output.
You can't call functions or print variables values within it.
e.g. print 'hello_world() $name';
prints just that.
* if you want to quote with ' - you'll have to mix it up.
e.g. print hello_world() . ' ' . $name;
* the {}'s we saw earlier is a way of explicitly telling php to
analyze the whole thing, not just the first bit.
e.g. print "$_POST['PO_YEAR']";
equates to
print $_POST . "['PO_YEAR']";
and is properly written
print "{$_POST['PO_YEAR']}";
My apologies to both the list for a non-db related post, and to anyone
whos client munges this up something fierce. Outlook will likely strip
the extra line feeds - click the little yellow box at the top for
legibility.
