What is difference between $message And $$message? in PHP

Please Do Google for very better and clear answer.

Lets take into account the following code.

<?php
$message="This is a string<br>";
echo $message;

$message="variable";
$variable="This is the second string";
echo $$message;
?>

You will notice with the second method it will check the variable $message for it's value and it's value is the string "variable". So then it searches for $variable and finds the final value which it yields.

What is difference between $message And $$message? in PHP

All variables in PHP start with a '$' sign symbol.

<?
$variable="hai"; 
$var="variable";
echo $($var);
?>

exactly it works like mathematical substitute functionality.
