    Ok, I've been trying to retrieve information from a MYSQL database using PHP and I've come across this error.

    "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE, expecting ',' or ';' in /usr/local/www/php/dbtest/index.php on line 17"
    Here is the part of the code in question.

    <?php
while($output_row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) 
{
    echo '<p>'.$output_row["VM_NAME"].', '$output_row["VM_STRING"].'</p>'; // Problem line
}
?>
    PHP:
    I'm completely stumped cause the code to me looks fine, so perhaps one of you may have the answer.

    echo '<p>'.$output_row["VM_NAME"].', '.$output_row["VM_STRING"].'</p>';
}
?>
