Doug Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 <a href=pictures1.php?user_id= ' . $row['user_id'] . '>' . $row['name'] . '</a>'; The program ignores ' . $row['user_id'] . ' so does not go to the correct page. Why would this be? ' . $row['name'] . ' works. Any answers greatly appreciated Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/229007-what-is-wrong-with-this-line/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altrozero Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 The line seems fine, are you sure there is data in $row['user_id']? Could it by null?

hyster Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 why have u got . before and after the vars? think it should be <a href=pictures1.php?user_id= $row['user_id'] >'$row['name']</a>'; and if its not allready in php then u need to do <a href=pictures1.php?user_id= <?php echo $row['user_id'] ?>> <?php echo $row['name'] ?></a>'; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/229007-what-is-wrong-with-this-line/#findComment-1180294 Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshbedo Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 try this <a href=pictures1.php?user_id=" ' . $row['user_id'] . '">' . $row['name'] . '</a>'; if your echoing that line otherwise, and i think its better practice <a href=pictures1.php?user_id="<?php echo $row['user_id']; ?>"><?php echo $row['name']; ? ></a> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/229007-what-is-wrong-with-this-line/#findComment-1180324 Share on other sites More sharing options...
silkfire Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 You can echo the whole line like this: echo "<a href=\"pictures1.php?user_id=$row[user_id]\">$row[name]</a>"; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/229007-what-is-wrong-with-this-line/#findComment-1180327 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ardesigns Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Try replacing that whole echo statement with this: echo '<img src="' . MM_UPLOADPATH . $row["picture"] . '" alt="' . $row["name"] . '" style="width:150px; maxheight=110px; margin: 5px; padding: 5px" /> <a href="pictures1.php?user_id=' . $row["user_id"] .'"> '. $row["name"] .
