Help with putting some space between lines

[Chrisj]

In this if/else function (below), how can I put some space between "Success! Payment Complete!" and "Go To Display". When it shows up on the web page those two lines are stacked right on top of each other. How do I put some space between them? Thanks

 

	if ($query1 && $query) {
$result = "Success! Payment Complete!";
	$rlink = "search.php";
	//$rlink = "search.php?".$slink;
	$rtitle = "Go To Display";
}else{
	$result = "There was a problem processing your request. Try again later or";
	$rlink = "page.php?page=2";
	$rtitle = "Contact Support";
}
}

I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but would using <br> work as to space them from each other?

[Chrisj]

Thanks for that reply.

 

I tried this: $result = "Success! Payment Complete!"<br><br>;

 

and I tried this:

$result = "Success! Payment Complete!";
<br><br>
	$rlink = "search.php";
	//$rlink = "search.php?".$slink;
	$rtitle = "Go To Display";

Both were unsuccessful.

[PugJr]

No, no. You did this:

 

 $result = "Success! Payment Complete!"<br><br>; 

 

Thats wrong. Do this:

 

 $result = "Success! Payment Complete!<br><br>"; 

 

Why that is, is because all the content must stay within the "".

 

[Chrisj]

Thank you for your reply, but your suggestion appears on the web page like this:

 

Success! Payment Complete! <br><br>

 

Any other suggestions, would be appreciated.

Enable HTML?

[Chrisj]

Enable html is probably good advice, but I don't know what in particular to do with that in regard to my request for help.

Paste your current code please.

[Chrisj]

Thanks for your reply. Here is the page of code:

 

<?php
session_start();
//CHECK IF FORM SUBMITTED
if ($_POST['submitted'] == 'yes') {

$pages = $_POST['id'];
if (!isset($_POST['id'])) {
echo "<script>document.location.href='index.php'</script>";
die();
}

$skey = $_SESSION['searched'];


if ($_POST['user_id'] != "") {
      		$member_id = $_POST['user_id'];
    	}

if ($_POST['ttl'] != "") {
      		$total = $_POST['ttl'];
    	}


}

foreach ($pages as $vid) {

     $my_db_info[] = $vid;

}



include_once ('classes/config.php');
include_once ('classes/functions.inc.php');
$member_credits = get_member_credits($member_id);

$balance = $member_credits - $total;

if ($member_credits >= $total && $balance >= 0) {

for( $x = 0; $x < sizeof( $my_db_info ); ++$x) {

       $sql = "INSERT INTO credits_temp ( mem_id, vid_id ) VALUES ( $member_id, $my_db_info[$x] )";
       $query = @mysql_query($sql);

}
$sql1 = "UPDATE credits SET total_credits=$balance where user_id=$member_id"; //subtract credits
$query1 = mysql_query($sql1);

if ($query1 && $query) {
	$result = "Success! Payment Complete!<br><br>";
	$rlink = "search.php";
	//$rlink = "search.php?".$slink;
	$rtitle = "Go To Display";
}else{
	$result = "There was a problem processing your request. Try again later or";
	$rlink = "page.php?page=2";
	$rtitle = "Contact Support";
}

} else{
	$error = "You do not have enough credits. To purchase credits, ";
	$rlink = "credits.php";
	$rtitle = "Click Here";
}



$template		= "themes/$user_theme/templates/main_1.htm";
$inner_template1 	= "themes/$user_theme/templates/inner_buy.htm";			//middle of page
$TBS 			= new clsTinyButStrong;
$TBS->NoErr		= true;											// no more error message displayed.

$TBS->LoadTemplate("$template");
$TBS->MergeBlock('mp', $members_full);

$TBS->Render	= TBS_OUTPUT;
$TBS->Show();
@mysql_close();

die();

/*

// show "nothing to show" empty arrays
if (empty($result_featured)) {
$show_v = 1;

} else {
$show_v = 2;
}

// display results
$template		= "themes/$user_theme/templates/main_1.htm";
$inner_template1 	= "themes/$user_theme/templates/inner_buy.htm";			//middle of page
$TBS 			= new clsTinyButStrong;
$TBS->NoErr 	= true;											// no more error message displayed.

$TBS->LoadTemplate("$template");
$TBS->MergeBlock('blkfeatured', $result_featured);

$TBS->Render 	= TBS_OUTPUT;
$TBS->Show();

@mysql_close();

die();

Ahh, so it now all becomes clear. 

 

You are using some form of templating system, so this is why, when you stick in a

into a string, it appears translated to the html entities rather than getting the effect of having the embedded tag.

 

For templating systems, the markups is suppossed to be in the templates.  We would need to know more about your template engine to help at this juncture, but it seems that spacing should be handled in the template itself, or in your .css, not by trying to inject blank line markup into the result string.
