I have constructed the following –
`$format_$game_$name_$season`
4 variables with underscores between. Should this work, or will it act as one variable?
THankyou
That wont work, but not because it’ll act as one variable.
First, you need to use double quotes. Backticks wont interpret at all and variables wont be expanded in a single quoted string. Further reading: String Parsing.
Furthermore, when double quoting your string it’ll be interpreted as
$format_ . $game_ . $name_ . $season. That is, PHP will be thinking the three first variables end with an underscore. You’ll have to do either$format . '_' . $game . '_' . $name . '_' . $seasonor"{$format}_{$game}_{$name}_{$season}".
