    ok heres the problem. I have a string I want to add onto the start of another string in php.

    basically i have the end part of the email address "@somthing.com" and i want to add a value (entered by the user in a form) onto it.

    I'm sure theres some concatenation functions that can do this?

    (i know the problems solved, may as well answer though :) )
    php uses the . operator, just like perl for combining strings 
    $email = $username . "@example.com";
$email = "$username@example.com";
    will both work (but the first is a better option really)
