Changing page title using PHP and Value from DB

[smartcard]

I'm trying to write a PHP page that takes values from two db fields to
generate the title meta tag from a value in my database. I've got all the
database connection stuff working but the problem is that I can only show
one field info as a title.

The following is working file, where it is getting only the value of
$strBrandName and showing it well.
<title><?php echo $strBrandName + $strModel;?></title>

When I want to combine the value of BrandName and Model it is not working.
<title><?php echo $strBrandName + $strModel;?></title>

I think may be my "+" is wrong!

Can anyone help me please? I've looked in my book and on Google but can't
find any code examples.

Thanks.

What your after is string concatenation.

The concatenation operator in php is the full stop (period)

I think you'd want something like:

$strBrandName . ' ' . $strModel

(putting a space between the brand and model)

And welcome to WebmasterWorld btw.
