?echo $session

[wilna]

Hi

I would just like to know what is the difference between:

 

<a href=mrt10.php?echo $session><font face=Arial size=2>March</a>

 

and

 

<a href=mrt10.php><font face=Arial size=2>March</a>

well firstly, the top example contains some PHP, but it won't run because its not wrapped in <?php ?>

 

if you wanted that to work it would need to be

 

<a href="mrt10.php?<?php echo $session; ?>"><font face="Arial" size="2">March</a>

 

And it will add whatever $session is equal too into that link. And if it contains nothing, you'll see no difference.

 

And the bottom example is just plain old HTML lol

ok sorry my mistake, let me try again:

 

<?php

echo "<a href=mrt10.php?echo $session><font face=Arial size=2>March</a>";

?>

 

and

<?php

echo "<a href=mrt10.php><font face=Arial size=2>March</a>";

?>

The top example will raise an error, take the echo out of the middle of the line like this (I've also encapsulated it for you)

 

<?php
echo "<a href=mrt10.php?{$session}><font face=Arial size=2>March</a>";
?>
