Re: [PHP4BETA] PHP 3 syntax imcompatibilities From: Andi Gutmans (andi <email protected>)
Date: 12/20/99

In PHP 4 {$ in encapsulated strings tells PHP 4 that it should be expecting
something like {$variable}. This was done because now in PHP 4 within { }
in your encapsed strings you aren't limited with your variables anymore but
can go wild with multi-dimensional arrays.
Try to escape the {$ with \{$
