spacepoet Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Hello: I am trying to select all the records from a table, and display them. Having an issue... This is the code: <ul> <?php $query = mysql_query("SELECT id,mySectionTitle FROM myWebSiteData"); while($menuData = mysql_fetch_array($query)) { <li><a href="a_websiteData.php?id=" .echo $menuData['id'] ."">echo $menuData['mySectionTitle']</a></li> } ?> </ul> This is the error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /html/admin/a_websiteData.php on line 91 line 91 is the one that starts with "<li>" What am I missing, or what would be the best way to do this?

Pikachu2000 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 You've thrown a string (starting with <li>) into the middle of php code without quoting it and echoing it.

spacepoet Posted February 12, 2011 Author Share Posted February 12, 2011 Hi: ...without quoting it and echoing it. I'm not sure what you mean by this... Can you show me?

Pikachu2000 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 You're trying to echo the <li><a href . . . etc., but you haven't done echo "<li><a href . . . " You just threw a string into the middle of PHP code. Do you see where I'm referring to?

spacepoet Posted February 12, 2011 Author Share Posted February 12, 2011 OK - got it! echo "<li><a href=\"a_websiteData.php?id=".$menuData['id']."\">". $menuData['mySectionTitle'] ."</a></li>"; Thanks for the tip!
