PHP Ampersand in String
- by John
Hello. I'm having a bit of a problem. I am trying to create an IRC bot, which has an ampersand in its password. However, I'm having trouble putting the ampersand in a string. For example...
<?php
$var = "g&abc123";
echo $var;
?>
I believe this should print g&abc123. However it's printing g.
I have tried this as well:
<?php
$arr = array("key" => "g&abc123");
print_r($arr);
?>
This prints it correctly with the g&abc123, however when I say echo $arr['key']; it prints g again. Any help would be appreciated. I'm running PHP5.3.1.
EDIT: Also, I just noticed that if I use g&abc123&abc123 it prints g&abc123. Any suggestions?
