Re: [PHP] help again
do yourself a favor... create a file, call it something like test.php and add the following to it's contents: /* begin test.php */ /* End test.php */ then, open this page with your browser. if PHP is working, you should see a lot of configuration and version information, and the PHP logo etc if you don't see that, then your installation is broken. - Original Message - From: "Nikola Veber" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Andrey Hristov" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "php forum" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, August 31, 2001 11:00 AM Subject: Re: [PHP] help again > The code of your's print's the following : > > $beer's taste is great";?> > > I'm not sure if there could be a problen in configuring PHP, since the only thing > I have done was making html page > containing this code. > > 8/31/01 6:42:02 PM, "Andrey Hristov" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > >PHP Test > > > > > > >$beer = 'Heineken'; > >echo "$beer's taste is great"; > >?> > > > > > > > >Andrey Hristov > >IcyGEN Corporation > >http://www.icygen.com > >BALANCED SOLUTIONS > > > > > >- Original Message - > >From: "Nikola Veber" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >To: "php forum" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >Sent: Friday, August 31, 2001 7:38 PM > >Subject: [PHP] help again > > > > > >> I am having big troubles here.

Re: [PHP] help again
The code of your's print's the following : $beer's taste is great";?> I'm not sure if there could be a problen in configuring PHP, since the only thing I have done was making html page containing this code. 8/31/01 6:42:02 PM, "Andrey Hristov" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > >PHP Test > > >$beer = 'Heineken'; >echo "$beer's taste is great"; >?> > > > >Andrey Hristov >IcyGEN Corporation >http://www.icygen.com >BALANCED SOLUTIONS > > >- Original Message - >From: "Nikola Veber" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: "php forum" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Sent: Friday, August 31, 2001 7:38 PM >Subject: [PHP] help again > > >> I am having big troubles here.

Re: [PHP] help again
Sounds like you want to do : $guiness = 'Thick and Creamy!'; $beer= 'guiness'; print ${$beer}; // Thick and Creamy!

Re: [PHP] help again
echo sends a literal string to the output and eventually evaluates variables that are found inside, so it seems that your instruction should be: echo "{$beer}'s taste is great"; Why it worked with outside, I guess because it was closing some former tag in your code or something like that... Hope this helps (this sentence should be a tag!)

Re: [PHP] help again
All you should need to do is echo "$beer's taste is great"; don't use the braces. -Jbell - Original Message - From: "Nikola Veber" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "php forum" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, August 31, 2001 9:38 AM Subject: [PHP] help again > I am having big troubles here.
