Try this:

PHP Code:


			
$block .=  $row[$columnname];

$columnname is a variable, so I guess you can use it directly inside the $row[] array. If it doesn't work you can also try $row["columnname"] (double quotes instead of single quotes). As far as I remember variables enclosed in double quotes will evaluate to their value... while single quotes won't.

Eg:

PHP Code:


			
$x = "test";



echo "this is a $x";

//output: this is a test



echo 'this is a $x';

//output: this is a $x
