echoing a $vboption via the script

i'm wondering why this won't work

PHP Code:


		
			
         $grps_pagetitle = "Groups @ $vboption[hometitle]";

i though ok if that won't work

PHP Code:


		
			
     $grps_pagetitle = "Groups @" . '$vboption[hometitle]' . "";

but that just had the same results as

PHP Code:


		
			
     $grps_pagetitle = "Groups @ \$vboption[hometitle]";

i'm wondering what i'm doing wrong.

Single quotes don't parse variables, which is the main difference from double quotes.

This form is preferable:

PHP Code:


		
			
$grps_pagetitle = "Groups @ " . $vboption['hometitle'];

Always use single quotes for constant array keys, no exceptions. I hate how vB's templates rely on deprecated methods to access arrays.

Also, note that

PHP Code:


		
			
. ""

...does nothing at all.

Also, I just recalled that @ has special meaning in PHP (it surpresses warnings and errors). Be careful when using it.

thanks, although the vboption[hometitle] still doesn't echo, if i type it into a template it echo's fine, just not via the script directly?
