hyperlink part of results display

[rhock_95]

no that is the code I am replacing...currently the "city" is not hyperlinked...just plain text

 

this is the latest I have tried ...still no joy

 

echo "<td><a href =\"{$row['city']}\"> $city <a></td>";

Try:

echo "<td><a href =\"".$row['city']."\">".$row['city']."<a></td>";

?

Ok that displays the city and links it to ./city which is not right but it is getting closer...

 

I will work with this for a while and report back...thanks for all the replies and all the efforts so far...

 

stay tuned...

for the code i gave you, the link should be this

echo "<td><a href =? .$row['city'].>".$row['city']."<a></td>";

[rhock_95]

with that I get:

 

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING'

[DeanWhitehouse]

echo "<td><a href =? .$row['city'].>".$row['city']."<a></td>";

 

change to either

 

?>

<td><a href="?<?php echo $row['city]; ?>"><?php echo $row['city];?></a></td>

<?php

 

or

echo "<td><a href='? ".$row['city']" '>".$row['city']."</a></td>";

 

if the echo one doesn;t work use the other one, and play around with them to get them to work

[rhock_95]

just more errors...

 

btw...The whole page is a php script "search.php"

[DeanWhitehouse]

what errors??

and can you show the lines where the errors are?

[rhock_95]

they are parse errors on the lines where the "City links" are...

 

FWIW...I use another $row for inhouse referencing...here is the format:

 

echo "<td><a href =\"./searchx.php?query={$row['inventory']}\">inventory?</a></td>";
