[SOLVED] simple PHP syntax

[ssuubb]

hi everyone - my apologies for what may be a simple question, but i just cant get my head around it!

 

below is a script which i am using, and it is working properly when printing to the browser like so:

 

print("".$urls[$day]);

 

but i need to use the $urls[$day] output in the following query_posts command.

 

normal usage of the query_posts commad would be the following:

 

query_posts('p=34')

 

but i am using the script below to specify the argument based on the day of the month. ie. on the 12th day of the month $urls[$day] would output p=34

 

my problem is that i dont know how to specify the $urls[$day] argument:

 

query_posts('.$urls[$day].')

 

the above makes sense to me, but i obviously have no idea!

 

any help would be greeted with real unadulterated gratitude from myself.

 

thanks for reading!

$day28, $day29, $day30, $day31);
//Get day of the month
$day=date("j");
//Print in broswer


query_posts('.$urls[$day]');      
?>

I'm not sure I understand your question completely. But just by looking at the code I'm guessing you want this:

 

query_posts($urls[$day]);

Anything inbetween single quotes will be parsed as a string. So instead of the value of $urls[$day], it would literally be the string '$urls[$day]', and you had a period in there

Thank you so much Alex!

 

I really appreciate you assistance

 

Many thanks
