 * If I run the following I see the echo command showing my first_name and last_name
 *  if (empty($user_id)) {
    echo $wp_first_name.’ ‘.$wp_last_name; $data=array(‘
   first_name’ => $wp_first_name, ‘last_name’ => $wp_last_name); // Participants_Db::
   write_participant($data); }
 * However if I now run the following and include the write_participant statement
   I don’t see the echo command giving the first_name and last_name. The record 
   is created but I don’t see the echo command giving the first_name and last_name.
   Am I missing something. The names are simply not displayed…
 *  if (empty($user_id)) {
    echo $wp_first_name.’ ‘.$wp_last_name; $data=array(‘
   first_name’ => $wp_first_name, ‘last_name’ => $wp_last_name); Participants_Db::
   write_participant($data); }
 * Thanks
