Separate variable from following literal substring

I'm writing 2 variables in a double quoted string: $j and $r, but I want to write a literal string immediately after $j. The trouble is that if I write "$jx$r", then PHP treats the string as $jx and $r.

How can I separate the leading variable ($j) from the literal string (x)?

You need to reformat your string a litte:

Tis might be easier to read:

echo $j."x".$r

But if you want it in one string:

echo "{$j}x$r";

See the manual page for double quoted strings, there is also an explaination how the curly braces work.
