Norman, you've become confused by Richard's string quoting.
His php strings are single quoted and he uses double quotes for his html.
This means that php variable translation does not take place in the
strings.
In his initial example, name="alpha" was an attribute of the iframe, not
part of the query string of the src url.
This is why he has to replace songid with
'.$songid.'
instead of
$songid
Initially he said he was using this:
<iframe id="x1" src="audiox1.php?asong=songid" name="alpha"></iframe>
But he typically omitted to tell us whether this was in a heredoc or echo
with single quoted strings (or even a nowdoc).
In a heredoc, he could use $songid ( or even {$songid} ) but if it was an
echo with single quotes, he would need to use '.$songid.'
Subsequently he said '.$songid.' worked, so I deduce backwards from that
that richard was using single quoted php string with echo.
This is an example of classic richard, he feeds you half the problem and
the nature of the original problem only becomes clear after you've solved
for all possible variations and he's picked the solution that works. It
would be so much easier if he would learn to ask the right question, but
that's probably a lost cause now.
Mind you, I suspect so is his website. I still haven't worked out what
niche he expects to fill that isn't already fully covered by a
combination of you tube and wikipedia.
