[SOLVED] simple email script question

[JTapp]

All of a sudden I'm getting the following characters after somebody clicks on my email links:

</td><td class=

 

for example - they would click on the email link, it would open up a new email message and look like this:

 

name@msn.com</td><td class=

 

Do you guys know how I can fix this?  Here is my line of code:

$variable12=$row["Email"];

Can you post the table where this is being displayed?  It probably doesn't have anything to do with this line.

Here is a table with an example:

Thanks

You need to move the </a> before </td>.  If you can post the code here, I can be much more specific, but that is the problem most likely.  And if you don't have it there at all, you need to insert </a> before </td><td class=

[JTapp]

Here is the line:

 

echo "<td class=\"td_id\"><a href=\"mailto:$variable5\</td>\n";

 

I'll play around with what you said.. although I'm not 100% clear.

Thanks

Yep.  Change it to this...

 

echo "<td class=\"td_id\"><a href=\"mailto:$variable5\</a></td>\n";

[JTapp]

Still having the problem... playing around though..

[JTapp]

Geez.. I just can't remember doing this.. I did it last year sometime.

Here is more code I'm using .. its just giving me trouble

 

        echo "<td class=\"td_id\">$variable4</td>\n";

 

echo "<td class=\"td_id\"><a href=\"mailto:$variable5\</td>\n";

 

 

        echo "<td class=\"td_id\">$variable5</td>\n";

 

[Stryves]

echo "<td class=\"td_id\"><a href=\"mailto:$variable5\"></a></td>\n";

 

Why is there no "> to the end of the a href? Try the above.

[JTapp]

Thanks but no.. it just made the hyperlink disappear.

[JTapp]

This is as close as I can get to making it worK:

 

echo "<td class=\"td_id\">$variable4</td>\n";

echo "<td class=\"td_id\"><a href=\"mailto:$variable5>\n";

 

echo "<td class=\"td_id\">$variable5</td>\n";

 

[JTapp]

Here's my latest - anybody have any ideas as to what is wrong??

 

echo "<td class=\"td_id\"><a href=\"mailto:$variable5\"</td>\n";
