HuggieBear Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I see quite a lot of code on these forums that does the same thing but is written differently...e.g. When referencing a GET variable in PHP I use $_GET['name']. If I try and use this exact var in a heredoc it doesn't work, I have to drop the single quotes and use $_GET[name], now I've also seen people put it as {$_GET['name']}.Now I can't find anything about these curly braces in the manual and I'd like to try and work to some kind of a standard, so does anyone have an explanation or can you point me to the page in the manual where it's listed?RegardsHuggie Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/20775-whats-the-deal-with-curly-braces-around-variables/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
