Quick Question about echo value

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hey guys, I'm trying to get something to show differently in one of my scripts. I'm trying to make it so that people that are a certain rank in my game will have their names show up bold in the users online. so I figured it would go like this:

Code: mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='$username'");
$rank=$rows['rank'];
$rankpoints=$rows['rankpoints'];

if($rankpoints>=50000){
echo '<b>$rank</b>' ; }

Is that right? Because normally when they hit this certain rank, it updates their rank in the database to RANK. However, when viewing users online, it doesn't show it. Anyone know why? Either way, I would like for them to get their names in bold.
