RussellReal Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 because $row['table_primary'] is not the same as $table_primary lol Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/148522-solved-echoing-variables/#findComment-779904 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy445 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 then should it be $total_table_primary = $row['table_primary'] + $row['table_primary2']; <? echo $total_table_primary; ?> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/148522-solved-echoing-variables/#findComment-779910 Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommy445 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 Thank you sooo much. so, I called from mysql into table <? echo $row['table_primary']; ?> & <? echo $row['table_primary2']; ?> then i create a new variable $total_table_primary = $row['table_primary'] + $row['table_primary2']; now I can add new variables $combined_total_tables = $total_table_primary + $other_created_variable; and echo new variable <? echo $combined_total_table?> One last thing? I read the manual on number formatting but I can't figure out how to apply it to my echo'd data please help. Again thank you for helping me solve the previous issue.
