Simple php question

regarding emailing forms

I am trying to put this

CODE

$City=$_POST['city'];
$State=$_POST['state'];
$Zip=$_POST['zip1'];

on 1 line of the email

like this:

CODE

.'City,State,Zip: '.$city. '.$state. '.$zip1."\n"

city and zip come out fine but state always never fills in
state always comes out like this: .$state. on the email

whats the reason why? Also if you could give me the syntax to include a comma between city , state, and zip that would be helpful.

thanks

I'm not a php programmer, but it looks like you need to remove the single quotes around state which will designate it as a the text value . $state .

If you want to add the comma, I am guessing that would be:

.'City,State,Zip: '.$city.', '.$state.' '.$zip1."\n"

Perfect,

thanks for the help

I would personally remove all that single quote crap - its unnecesserally confusing - and just use double quotes - as php can parse variables in double quotes:

print ("City,State,Zip: $city $state $zip \n");

Also from your code above it looks like you need to watch the capitalisation of your var names, and Zip1 should be Zip.
