Hello, this works fine: $name="fido"; $string="my dog's name is $name"; echo $string;//prints my dog's name is fido but when I store the string "my dog's name is $name" in the db and pull it out: //do the query $row=$datab->fetch(); $name="fido"; $string=$name['db_column']; echo $string//prints my dog's name is $name How can I get it to work with the db? Thanks!
