[SOLVED] variable problem, got to be something simple...

[arianhojat]

<?php

$oldRoutedTo = 379;

echo '$oldRoutedTo='. $oldRoutedTo .'<br/>';

 

$routedTo = $oldRouterTo;

echo '$routedTo='. $routedTo .'<br/>';

?>

 

 

for me this outputs

$oldRoutedTo=379

$routedTo=

 

shouldnt $routedTo=379?!?!?!

 

thanks in advance,

hopefully if i am doing something real dumb in the morning.

weird...

if i renamed $oldRoutedTo=379 to $old, it works.

then if i rename back to $oldRoutedTo, it works. errrrr hate peoblems like this that make no sense. Could php somehow cache variables heh?

[aebstract]

<?php
$oldRoutedTo = '379';
echo "$oldRoutedTo";


$routedTo = "$oldRoutedTo";
echo "$routedTo";

?>

 

Both should echo 379 in this example? I am not sure what you actually want it to do, hopefully this is it.

You misspelled the variable in this line:

<?php
$routedTo = $oldRouterTo;
?>

"$oldRouterTo" != "oldRoutedTo"
