Call a variable within an array

Question

I currently have a variable setup in one php file:

<?php
$images_url = "http://foo.bar.com/helloworld/images/";
?>

I have a different file in which I have an array. Here's a snippet of the array:

'image'   => '<img src="urlencode($images_url);/news/20140528.jpg" />';

I'm guessing urlencode() is not the correct tool, but it's the most recent one I've tried.

PS. Please excuse any formatting issues, as this was composed on my phone.

'image' => '<img src="' . urlencode($images_url) . '/news/20140528.jpg">' — scrowler

Try the following instead:

'image' => '<img src="' . urlencode($images_url) . '/news/20140528.jpg" />'

Didn't quite work, but you put me on the right track. I used 'image => '<img src="' . ($images_url) . '/news/20140528.jpg">'

There shouldn't be a semi-colon in an array definition
