Single quotes *within* double quotes, as the OP had, do not stop PHP
from interpolating the variables!

Try it

<?php
$name = 'Jerry';

echo "Name is $name"; /* only double quotes */
echo 'Name is $name'; /* only single quotes */
echo "Name is '$name'"; /* single quotes *within* double quotes */
echo 'Name is "$name"'; /* double quotes *within* single quotes */
?>
