smaller sample from a larger script: i'm simply trying to copy files from one desktop directory on a mac to another using variables. when i first test the logic of the script without variables, everything works and the copy is effective.
but i'm unable to call the same copy by passing a variable. script runs as root, FYI. much obliged if you can weigh in. hoping it's just a syntax error that i'm missing.
i'm assuming that i've got a syntax error here but i can't see where. i use similar syntax in other scripts all the time...
thanks for whatever insight you might have to share.

forgot to mention the error i'm getting:
which is odd as:
a) the directory does exist
b) when i run the cp manually and without variables, it's. just. fine.

LEARN ABOUT PHP
_env
_ENV(3) 1 _ENV(3)
$_ENV - Environment variables
An associative array of variables passed to the current script via the environment method.
These variables are imported into PHP's global namespace from the environment under which the PHP parser is running. Many are provided by
the shell under which PHP is running and different systems are likely running different kinds of shells, a definitive list is impossible.
Please see your shell's documentation for a list of defined environment variables.
Other environment variables include the CGI variables, placed there regardless of whether PHP is running as a server module or CGI proces-
sor.
$HTTP_ENV_VARS contains the same initial information, but is not a superglobal. (Note that $HTTP_ENV_VARS and $_ENV are different variables
and that PHP handles them as such)
+--------+---------------------------------------------------+
|Version | |
| | |
| | Description |
| | |
+--------+---------------------------------------------------+
| 4.1.0 | |
| | |
| | Introduced $_ENV that deprecated $HTTP_ENV_VARS. |
| | |
+--------+---------------------------------------------------+
Example #1
$_ENV example
<?php
echo 'My username is ' .$_ENV["USER"] . '!';
?>
Assuming "bjori" executes this script
The above example will output something similar to:
My username is bjori!
Note
This is a 'superglobal', or automatic global, variable. This simply means that it is available in all scopes throughout a script.
There is no need to do global $variable; to access it within functions or methods.
getenv(3), The filter extension.
