[SOLVED] Hyperlink in PHP

[sanfordss]

I'm not sure if this is PHP, but it's in a php script. I need to make the 'Request ID' a hyperlink. How would that work in this case?

 

}

function f_format_result($request){

 

      $html = "<div style='padding: 5px; margin-bottom: 10px; border: 2px solid #000000; width:300px;'>";

$html .= "<strong>Vehicle Information:</strong><br />";

$html .= "Make : $request[vmake]<br />";

$html .= "Year : $request[vyear]<br />";

$html .= "Model : $request[vmodel]<br />";

            $html .= "Request ID : $request[reqid]<br />";

$html .= "VIN : $request[vin]<br />";

$html .= "Mileage : $request[mileage]<br />";

$html .= "Problem Description : $request[probdescrip]";

$html .= "</div>";

return $html;

}

just like those <br /> tags, you can add HTML to your string.

you might be getting hung up on the "quotes" though.

 

Because your PHP string is in quotes, you need to \escape\ the html quotes within that string

 

$html .= "Request ID : <a href=\"link2wherever\">$request[reqid]</a><br />";

Try changing:

 

$html .= "Request ID : $request[reqid]
";

Because your PHP string is in quotes, you need to \escape\ the html quotes within that string

 

Or just use single quotes and PHP will still interpolate.
