Lose the single quotes, quoting a single variable is nonsense.
Quotes are used to define strings, it is a feature (called substitution) of PHP that allows you to use a variable within a string. The reason it doesn't work is that this subtitution is only performed on strings enclosed in "'s (double quotes). bvr.
