[SOLVED] If $variable4 is an email address, how do I activiate it?

[JTapp]

I tried this but it is not working:

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

 

[Maq]

Try something like this:

 

echo "\n";

Thanks but it didn't work... it doesn't return anything ... but the words $variable5 are black instead of red in my code...

[Maq]

I know cause I used the code tags and started it with "<?php".  Can you echo the $variable5 to make sure there's a value?

In cases like 'not working', it sometimes helps to view the generated HTML code.  Try this variant:

 

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

All set.  Thanks for all of your help and time.
