strings in double quotes are evaluated looking for $vars and {$vars} to
substitute. strings with in single quotes are not evaluated for vars.
$var = "my favourite color is {$col}"; // works
$var = "my favourite color is $col"; // works
$var = 'my favourite color is $col'; // doesn't work
$var = 'my favourite color is ' . $col; // works
Same applies to strings within functions:
include('{$dir}/{$file}.inc') // doesn't work
include('$dir/$file.inc') // doesn't work
include($dir.'/'.$file.'.inc') // works
include("{$dir}/{$file}.inc") // works
include("$dir/$file.inc") // probably works
Nothing to do with arrays :)
