Note Submitter: rkfranklin+php at gmail dot com ---- If you want to use a variable in an array index within a double quoted string you have to realize that when you put the curly braces around the array, everything inside the curly braces gets evaluated as if it were outside a string. Here are some examples: <?php $i = 0; $myArray[Person0] = Bob; $myArray[Person1] = George; // prints Bob (the ++ is used to emphasize that the expression inside the {} is really being evaluated.) echo "{$myArray['Person'.$i++]}<br>"; // these print George echo "{$myArray['Person'.$i]}<br>"; echo "{$myArray["Person{$i}"]}<br>"; // These don't work echo "{$myArray['Person$i']}<br>"; echo "{$myArray['Person'$i]}<br>"; // These both throw fatal errors // echo "$myArray[Person$i]<br>"; //echo "$myArray[Person{$i}]<br>"; ?>
