PHP add Value to Variable in Variable before echo












-1















i am looking for a solution:



$txt = "Welcome to ".$place." City!";

$place = "New York";

echo $txt; // should be "Welcome to New York City!"


The variable "$place" can only be declared after the variable "$txt".
Is that possible?



Thanks






php variables echo

  • When $txt is set, it is concatenating "Welcome to ", the value of $place, and " City!" to form a new string. So no, you cannot. Why do you want to do this?

It's unclear what you're trying to accomplish. But this is pretty close to your example and works as expected:



$txt = "Welcome to %s City!";

$place = "New York";

printf($txt, $place); // should be "Welcome to New York City!"

    You can't do that directly. The string is concatenated using the value of $place at the time of assignment so any changes to $place will not be reflected in the string. You can emulate something like this by writing a function that will generate the string once you know the place it should reference.



    function welcome($place) {
    
    return 'Welcome to '.$place.' City!';
    
}
    

    
$place = 'New York';
    

    
echo welcome($place);

      Yes it's possible.

      Just create a placeholder and str_replace it.

      Notice I changed " to '.

      If you use " it will read $place as a variable. With ' $place is string and can be replaced later in the code.



      $txt = 'Welcome to $place City!';
      
$place = "New York";
      
echo str_replace('$place', $place, $txt);
