Glenugie Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I have a page,, which contains on it a link, this link is being generated through a get variable, but I am trying to have it as a variable. I don't think my explanation is very clear, here's the code: 80- <a href='combat.php?area=<?$area?>'>Again</a> The variable $area has been echoed and it does have the correct value, but the link ignores it, so it just links to: combat.php?area= I have a feeling the problem is because I am putting PHP tags in the middle of the link. I have tried putting the whole link in php, and I've tried putting the <a href..../a> in the tags as well, but it doesn't seem to make any difference What would I have to change to fix this? Thanks again People ~Glenugie~ Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/139326-solved-php-get-with-variable/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
premiso Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 80- <a href='combat.php?area=<?php echo $area; ?>'>Again</a> I believe that is the correct way to echo it out, the other way would have been <?= but if short tags are turned off it would not work. If that does not work, paste more code please. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/139326-solved-php-get-with-variable/#findComment-728719 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenugie Posted January 3, 2009 Author Share Posted January 3, 2009 D'oh, I knew I'd forgotten something. Thanks for helping, can't believe I'd forgotten to echo it...
