Maybe you know from other languages (like basic), that you can add a string to another string like this: $string = $string + $string2; This won't work in php! You could use STR_PAD to add a string to another string. $chars_string1 = strlen($string1); $chars_string2 = strlen($string2); $chars = $chars_string1 + $chars_string2; $string1 = str_pad($string1, $chars, $string2, STR_PAD_RIGHT); BUT!!!!!!! There's a so much easier way to do the same: $string1 = "blub"; $string2 = "blab"; $string1 = "".$string1." ".$string2.""; print $string1; This would print out "blub blab"!! -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.str-pad.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+28934 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+28934 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+28934
