I personally would have written it different to reduce the concatenation...
$charge_id = "Charge ID: ".$charge_id
$billing_period = "\nBilling Period: ".date("m/d/Y h:i A",
$billing_start)." - ".date("m/d/Y h:i A", $billing_end);
$charge_time = "\nDate/Time of Charge: ".date("m/d/Y h:i A",
$current_time);
$card_charged = "\nCard Charged: **** **** **** ".$last_four;
$amount_charged = "\nAmount Charged: $".sprintf("%01.2f", $total);
$detail_text =
$charge_id.$billing_period.$charge_time.$card_charged.$amount_charged;
I'm presuming that $billing_start, $billing_end, $current_time, $last_four
and $total are defined somewhere else (probablly in a form) as they aren't
in the code example you supplied.
Hope this helps
