String manipulation

OK, I’m going mad here …

How do I stick 2 strings together?

What do I need to replace the + symbol with in the example below.

local FileName = “logoname.png”
local TheFolder = “pathtofile/”
local urlString = “http://” + TheFolder + FileName

Cheers

The double dot operator: ‘string1’ … ‘string2’

Note that if the second guy is a number it will convert it to a string and then stick them together. [import]uid: 1813 topic_id: 632 reply_id: 1247[/import]
