PHP noob..need help displaying comment ID

    I am trying to display the ID of each comment of every post on a category page.

    When I hard code a ‘post_id’ it works as intended:

    <?php
$comments = get_comments('post_id=32');
foreach($comments as $comment) :
echo($comment->comment_ID);
endforeach;
?>

    However when I try to dynamically set the ‘post_id’ it doesn’t work right:

    <?php
$idx = the_ID();
$comments = get_comments('post_id=$idx');
foreach($comments as $comment) :
echo($comment->comment_ID);
endforeach;
?>

    Any ideas? Is get_comments('post_id=$idx') written incorrectly?

    Nevermind, fixed it:

    <?php
$idx = 'post_id='.get_the_ID();
$comments = get_comments($idx);
foreach($comments as $comment) :			echo($comment->comment_ID);
endforeach;
?>
