How to add a hyperlink or a picture to php variable file

[freakyorkshire]

Hi im trying to add a hyperlink or a picture to php variable file, please could someone tell me if possible and how to or help with terminology and point me to a reference.

 

The mainpage index.php has a reference

<div id="subtitle2content">

<p><?php echo $pagesubtitle2content ?></p>

</div>

the file variables.php has a reference

$pagesubtitle2content='More on essays in this example text';

This works well but when I try and add a picture or a hyperlink around the word sample it breaks the page im trying to change until I return to text only

 

Maybe ive just got the syntax wrong but i cant work out what to search for on Google.  Ive tried "using hyperlinks in php variable reference files" but it doesnt give me anything useful - Is this what I am dealing with? A PHP variable reference file?

 

Thanks

Hi I managed to do this with

 

 

$pagesubtitle2content='<a href="www.google.com">More on essays in this example text</a><img src="img/1.png">';

I'm not sure if there's really a name for it.  It's just a file with variables that is included into another file that uses those variables.  You could just as easily have those variables in the same file as the echo.  This just makes it more flexible and possibly modular.

 

Most likely you're running into a quoting problem.  Different quotes have different rules and purposes.  Check here, especially the single and double sections: http://us2.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php

Thanks AbraCadaver

 

Its a modular site with the one variables.php file to adjust to customise content. 

 

Thanks for the link
