[SOLVED] Displaying HTML code problem

[Larry101]

Hi everyone

 

I just getting back to PHP after a break but have forgot how to build a HTML table row. Here is the part of the code that builds up rows for a html table...

 

while($rows = mysql_fetch_array($qry)){
        
           $table .= "
           <tr>
					<td><input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"C1\" value=\"ON\"></td>
					<td width=\"87\">$rows['ref']</td>
					<td width=\"178\">$rows['transactionReferenceNumber']</td>
					<td>$rows['totalAmountReceived']</td>
					<td>$rows['myItemQuantity']</td>
					<td>$rows['flag_1']</td>
					<td>$rows['flag2']</td>
				</tr>

           ";

				}

 

This causes an error as you might expect. Please tell me the best way to place the html code into $table

what is the error that you receive? Instead of using double quotes and escaping them...I recommend just using singles quotes..less writing and easier to read

Wrap your associative arrays within curly braces {}, eg

						<td width=\"87\">{$rows['ref']}</td>

Or an alternative solution would be to use concatenation operator, eg

						<td width=\"87\">". $rows['ref'] . "</td>

Thanks guys...

 

The error was "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/xxxx/public_html/TestArea2/admin/ad_tokens.php on line 26"

 

but when i used curly brackets it worked with no error.  Thanks for the help.
