[SOLVED] dumb question

[dadamssg]

i want to create a variable that sticks two other variables side by side.

for example

 

$email = $_POST['email'];

 

$fname = $_POST['fname'];

 

$combine = $email + $fname

 

echo $combine;

 

so if the values of email is whatever@gmail.com and the value of fname is bill, when i echo $combine ill get whatever@gmail.combill

 

right now i just get a '0'

try

 

$combine = '$email'.'$fname';

hey thanks...forgot about the period

 

$combine = $email.$fname works
