A bunch of simplifications, efficiency tweaks on this approach...
$wresult = ;
$wresult = '';
foreach ($search_string as $word_result){
$wresult = $wresult $word_result;
$wresult = $wresult . ' ' . $word_result;
OR you can do...
$wresult .= $word_result;
}
echo ($wresult);
echo $wresult;
BUT, the far far far better way to do this just takes one line:
echo implode(' ', $search_string);

Re: [PHP] string concatenation from array
Micah,
The sign in PHP (to the best of my knowledge) does not concatenate.
Use a . instead. See below.
$wresult = ;
foreach ($search_string as $word_result){
$wresult .= $word_result;
}
That should work for you.

Anyone see why when I run through each part of the array, it won't
attach
the next string and so on?
thanks

Re: [PHP] string concatenation from array
Of course, in this case, it would be much easier replace all of the above
with
echo join(' ', $search_string);
and be done with it. :-)

My personal favourite is to use an array. It's much cleaner syntax
IMO...it
is very easy to miss a '.' on a '.=', and introduce a nasty bug.
$wresult = array();
foreach ($search_string as $word_result) {
$wresult[] = $word_result;
}
echo join('', $wresult);
or in php 4.3
echo join($wresult);

Use the . concatenation operator. : )
