how do I do this?

[virva]

I have two variables

$fname = 'virva';
$sname = 'pesonen';

and I want to send mail to inform that a person has registered. Now, how do I define (this one doesn't work):

$message = 'A new person called $fname $sname has registered';

mail($recipient, $subject, $message);

Otherwise it works ok. Thanks if you can help.

$message = 'A new person called $fname $sname has registered';

Use double quotes instead of single quotes, this should work.
