Hi Chris, Depends on your preference :-) Regarding your line, I find doing it as below the "easiest" to read, especially how my syntax highlighting is displayed and how _my_ brain/eyes see it : print '<input type="radio" name="'. $C4 .'" value="'. $D4 .'">'. $C4; Not sure how html compliant single quotes are and just assume double quotes are more accepted (name='f' vs name="f"). HTML4.0 seems to enjoy the single quotes so that's mostly paranoia me thinks. A great tutorial on strings is : http://www.zend.com/zend/tut/using-strings.php And note, when a string is in double quotes, PHP will analyze it and parse, this is not the case with single quotes so logic suggests single quotes are "faster" as they are skipped over, although the performance gain is "small." Totally breaking out of PHP is of course an option too. It is personal choice and no "best" way exists for all situations. It seems "wiser" to print html as html, php as php but depends on the situation. Don't fear breaking out of PHP! Read that tutorial, it explains all this better then I. :-) Through experience this will become less of an issue. Also, *. concatenate .* is fun to say!
