We know periods are for concatination, but periods _within_ strings are not.
$ipaddr = "122.122.122.122";
$str = 'a'.$ipaddr.'string';
From the way I read that, the periods _within_ $ipaddr were being seen as
concatination characters (according to OP), which doesn't make sense. So I
wanted an example.
