Sounds as though it should be simple as could be and perhaps it is,, however when you don't know how its maddening! example: Code <?php $body1 = $LeadFirstName; $body2 = $LeadLastName; echo ($body1); echo ($body2); echo 'Thank you for registering. Your free ebook will be emailed to you within 48 hours.'; ?> This prints out sallysmithThank you for registering. Your free ebook will be emailed to you within 48 hours. Assuming of course that sally is the first name and smith is the last name used when registering on the form. What I cant figure out how to do is make it space between sally and smith ($body1 and $body2). Any help is appreciated. Thanks! Flipping houses in Sacramento market has been fantastic.

Code <?php $body1 = $LeadFirstName; $body2 = $LeadLastName; echo ($body1); echo ' ' echo ($body2); echo ' ' echo 'Thank you for registering. Your free ebook will be emailed to you within 48 hours.'; ?> "We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area." -UK military spokesman Major Mike Shearer

It'd be easier as:

Code

<?php 

$body1 = $LeadFirstName;
$body2 = $LeadLastName;

echo ("$body1 $body2 ");

echo 'Thank you for registering.  Your free ebook will be emailed to you within 48 hours.';

?>

Or even:

Code

<?php 

$names = "$LeadFirstName $LeadLastName";

echo ("$names ");

echo 'Thank you for registering.  Your free ebook will be emailed to you within 48 hours.';

?>

However when I type it correctly as you have shown it is much easier! Thanks for the help! Flipping houses in Sacramento market has been fantastic. Curious about what it takes to flip houses?

That is you can treat them as a string of text or in a math equation without creating a new variable. THis is not the case in most other languages, one or the other. PHP says, [censored] it, your a number, we can do math, and [censored] it, a number is a charater too.
