I unable to echo date in HTML table


Go to solution Solved by PravinS,

Hello all, I am having trouble doing something I am familiar with and do all the time but for some reason it is not working in this instance. I have tried many different combinations to echo the date in a table cell. The problem is NOT with the php for the date as I am familiar with date formating. Problem I am having is it is not showing up when I echo and it gives me a parsing error. I have tried it many different ways. With and without double quotes, with and without single quotes, without quotes all together. without single quotes before and after like it is now. Whatever I try it just doesn't want to echo the date. I am not sure what I am missing. Maybe I just need an extra set up eyes. I know this is a really simple issue I am just having a brain fart.

 

 

This is the actual line.

<td style="font-size: 100%;"><b>Weather History for' echo date("D M jS"); '</b></td>

This is a snippet from where the code is from.

// FULL HISTORY TABLE
$fullHistory = '
<!-- Start Weather History -->
<div class="NWSround">
<table width="640px" text-align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="margin:4px 11px 0px 11px;">
 <tr>
  <td style="font-size: 100%;"><b>Weather History for' echo date("D M jS"); '</b></td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
  <td> </td>
 </tr>';
$yearCount = count($historicalData);     // count keys in the array
for ($i = 0; $i < $yearCount; $i++){     // for each key, print the date and description
	$fullHistory .= " <tr>\n";
	$fullHistory .= "  <td style=\"text-align:justify; font-size: 12px;\">\n";
	$fullHistory .= $historicalData[$i]."<br /><br />\n";
	$fullHistory .= "  </td>\n";
	$fullHistory .= " </tr>\n";
}
$fullHistory .=
' <tr>
  <td>
   <span style="font-size: 9px;">'.$credited.'</span>
  </td>
 </tr>
</table>
</div>
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td><img alt="" src="images/1pixel.gif" border="0" height="7" width="7"></td><td class="shadow-mid" width="100%"><img alt="" src="images/1pixel.gif" border="0" height="7" width="7"></td><td><img alt="" src="images/1pixel.gif" border="0" height="7" width="7"></td></tr></tbody></table>
