Easy? join $vaiable w/ text

[badre]

Missed something early on

$mess1 = 'mes';
$message = $mess1 'sage';

[badre]

$mess1 = "mes";
$mess = trim("$mess1 sage");
$mess = ereg_replace (' +', '', $mess);

😕
Is the end result you are looking for $mess1sage?

// if so
$mess1 = 'mess'; // 2 s's
// concatenate the varriable with the string using a period (.)
$message = $mess1 . 'sage'; // 1 s
echo $message;
// output: messsage (3 s's)

you also can use
$mess1 = 'mess';
$message = "${mess1}sage"; // doble quote

echo $message;
