"$p" is trying to interpolate the value of the variable $p -- if you had full error
reporting turned on, you would see a nonexistent variable error. Once more, there are several things
you can do, of which the two most obvious are:
* Use single quotes: echo '$p';
* Use a backslash: echo "\$p";
Cheers!
