2You don't want PHP in the mail. You want the content of variables (e.g. `$example`) in the string. That's part of any PHP tutorial out there -> https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php – Andreas Apr 12 '21 at 11:00

You can't have php in an email, because emails can only have valid html/css code. What you want in your example is something like this:
$txt = '<th>' . $example . '</th>';
An alternative method of doing it would be as follows:
$txt = "<th> $example </th>";
In PHP, double quotation marks allow you to shove variables into the string and it automatically injects them in there. Speed difference is negligible, so you can use whichever fits your needs.
