[FX.php List] Stumbled on something I hadn't realized...

[Bob Patin]

I didn't realize that in PHP you can write

<?php

$string = "Bob";

echo "$string needs to read up on PHP.";

?>

I've been writing this:

echo $string." needs to read up on PHP.";

It never occurred to me to that you could put variables inside quotes  
like that and that they'd be echoed back rather than displayed as  
text...

I've been writing things the hard way all this time... sheesh...

Hopefully this will save someone else some time...
