Question

I’m pulling records from database, and I have a filed called content_fr
the _fr is being dynamicaly created based on a site language.

Getting all records from the table gives me of course content_fr field. What I need to do is manually assign the suffix in this case _fr if I try to concatenate $row->content.'_fr' I get the error Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$content, which makes sense since $content does not exist, but $content_fr does. Using standard arrays I was able to do it like $row['content_fr'], and worked fine, but now using stdClass I’m getting an error.

How can I convert $row->content.'_fr' into one string, so that php sees it as $row->content_fr ?

Answer 1

Try it like this :

$row -> {'content_' . $language}; // assuming $language = 'fr'
