PHP variable not getting resolved in html page

Question

I have a.php where I do a DB query and assign that to list like this..

list($A,$B)=mysql_fetch_row(mysql_query("SELECT A,B FROM configs WHERE idone=$v AND id='$inputid' LIMIT 1"));

            $p=array();
            $p=@explode(';,',base64_decode($A));
            $bg=$p[0];
            $A='';

            $i=0;
            foreach($p as $X){
                if(++$i>1) $A.='\''.str_replace(':-',':',$X).'\',';
            }

require'templates/inner_play.htm';

Now in inner_play.htm , I am using $A and $B from then above list like this..

 'image': '<?php echo $A?>',
 'URL' : '<?php echo $B ?>'

I can get the values for $A but $B does not resolve.? am i missing anything.?

Note: I can;t change the inner_play.htm to php as its part of bigger template system and I do get the value for $A in the same Htm but for some reason I am not getting $B.

The mysql_* functions are DEPRECATED, and you really should use the much-improved mysqli_* functions or a PHP Data Object interface. — Nightfirecat

Rename inner_play.htm to inner_play.php.

You are missing that .html files can not execute PHP functions sucha as echo.

You should rename your inner_play.htm to inner_play.php if you want to use any PHP inside.

Or you can setup server to run html as php:

Create a .htaccess file at the root of your website and add this line:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm

Thanks, I think that's already setup. that's how i get the value for $A in htm file, its the $B which is causing problem

maybe $B just contains NULL or False. in this case you'll not see it. do var_dump($B).
