For you guys, I imagine this will be easy.
<div class="vote_pct" style="width: $widthpx;">
I want the variable to be $width and for it to have px on the end. If i put a space, it doesnt work. If i put them together, it treats it as one big variable name.
Could I ask someone the correct snytax to achieve this? Thanks
$bla = '<div class="vote_pct" style="width: '.$width.'px;">';or
$bla = "<div class=\"vote_pct\" style=\"width: ${width}px;\">";If you mix PHP and HTML you can do:
//PHP in HTML
<div class="vote_pct" style="width: <?php echo $width; ?>px;">
HTML in PHP
print '<div class="vote_pct" style="width: ' . $width . 'px;">';
echo '<div class="vote_pct" style="width: '.$width.'px;">';
or
$width = 5;
echo "<div class=\"vote_pct\" style=\"width: {$width}px;\">";
<?php echo sprintf('<div class="%s" style="width: %spx">','vote_pct',$width);?>
echo sprintf() is an "antipattern". There is absolutely no reason that anyone should ever write echo sprintf() in any code for any reason -- it should be printf() every time.vote_pct as a parameter of sprintf() is just weird and unnecessary. The literal string should be simply written in the first parameter. This unexplained answer is not teaching best practices.
