Syntax question - echo content from several fields

That will place them as an unbroken output though, will it not? Should that not be:

<?php echo "$user['firstname'] $user['surname']"; ?>

for proper firstname[:space:]lastname type output?

Thanks Smartys!!

I did this to get a space between first and last name:

<? echo $user['firstname'].' '.$user['surname']; ?>

This will help me fix lots of other things in my site. :-)

Related question. In want to get the full name in this line, so firstname and surname with a space inbetween. (I'm customizing PunBB, so I have these database fields.)

<? echo $lang_index['Newest user'] ?>: <a href="profile.php?id=<? echo $stats['last_user']['id'] ?>"><? echo pun_htmlspecialchars($stats['last_user']['firstname']) ?></a>

firstname and surname seperate works, but I can't figure out he right syntax to get both first and surname. For example, this doesn't work:

<? echo pun_htmlspecialchars($stats['last_user']['firstname']['surname']) ?>

What's the cleanest/quickest way?

Thanks!

BTW, thanks for the side note, Reines. I didn't know that. It's good to know when I move to another server. For now it works and I like to remove "unnecessary" things from the code whereever possible. I'm easily confused. ;-)

Sure, but how do I get firstname and surname at the same time? There must be a cleaner way to do it than just putting both these lines in a row.
