Right, so I started today...
CODE
<?php
$myargite = "50";
$myauron = "0";

echo "You have $myargite Argite";
echo "You have $myauron Auron";
?>


But it doesn't echo, why?

The problem is probably that the variables are being called part of the text. I don't believe that it is supposed to matter, however it makes me go through this process aswell.

Try this:
CODE
<?php
$myargite = "50";
$myauron = "0";

echo "You have " . $myargite . " Argite";
echo "You have " . $myauron . " Auron";
?>

Also, why put quotes around a numerical variable?

echo "You have " . $myargite . " Argite";
echo "You have " . $myauron . " Auron";
?>

You only need to do strings that way when single quotes are used. With double quotes you can either use what betawar was doing or my personal preference, surround the variable with curly brakets {$myVariable} since it makes it way easier to read, debug, and has less troubles.
