21,074 PointsYou have to replace the string "vanilla" in the second string with your variable. In my case would be like this:
<?php
$flavor = "chocolate";
echo "<p>Your favorite flavor of ice-cream is ";
echo $flavor;
echo ".</p>";
echo "<p>Hal's favorite flavor is cookie dough, also!</p>";
?>
I hope that helps a little bit.

echo vanilla using the variable, not a string! or concatenate it by doing... <?php $flavor = "vanilla";
echo "<p>Your favorite flavor of ice cream is " . $flavor . ".</p>";
if ($flavor=="cookie dough"); { echo "<p>Hal's favorite flavor is cookie dough, also!</p>"; }
