spacepoet Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Hello: I am writing this code: <?php include('include/myConn.php'); include('include/myCodeLib.php'); $zip_id = $_REQUEST['zip_id']; $query=mysql_query("SELECT zip_id,city,full_state,zip FROM zip_codes WHERE zip_id = $zip_id") or die("Could not get data from db: ".mysql_error()); while($result=mysql_fetch_array($query)) { $zip_id=$result['zip_id']; $city=$result['city']; $full_state=$result['full_state']; $zip=$result['zip']; } ?> <!DOCTYPE HTML> <head> <title></title> </head> <body> <?php echo $city; ?>, <?php echo $full_state; ?> <?php echo $zip; ?> </body> </html> It works fine as far as writing out the "City, State Zipcode", but I wanted to see if there is a way to "join" the 3 statements together so it can be written as just 1 statement. Like: <?php echo $city, $full_state $zip; ?> What is the trick to doing this? Thanks in advance.

mrdhood Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 echo "City: " . $city . "; Full State: " . $full_state . "; Zip: " . $zip; The . continues it.

spacepoet Posted January 11, 2012 Author Share Posted January 11, 2012 OK, thank you. I think I see where you are going with it. Something like: <?php echo . $city . " ," . $full_state . $zip . ?> ??? I basically want it to read "City, State Zipcode" Example: Downingtown, Pennsylvania 19335 Will that work that way?

KevinM1 Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Easier to just: <?php echo "$city, $full_state $zip"; ?> Placing variables in double-quoted strings will echo their values.
