having trouble using variable variables in PHP -
I am doing this code from the book and I can not seem to work it
& lt; Html & gt; & Lt; Top & gt; & Lt; H3 & gt; & Lt; U & gt; PHP Tutorial & lt; / U & gt; & Lt; / H3 & gt; & Lt; / Head & gt; & Lt; Body & gt; & Lt ;? Php $ texas = "big"; $ Rhode Island = "small"; $ Statement = "Texas"; Echo "$ statement $ ($ statement) is
"; $ Statement = "Rhode Island"; Echo "$ statement $ ($ statement) is
"; ? & Gt; & Lt; / Body & gt; & Lt; / Html & gt; This is the output I get:
Texas Dollar (Texas)
Rhode Island is $ (Rhode Island)
Texas is big
Rhode Island is small
syntax is: $ {$ variable_name} , not $ ($ variable_name) . You have to change your code: $ statement = "Texas"; Echo "$ statement $ {$ statement}"
"; See for more information.
