How to echo HTML in PHP?

[mohabitar]

How do I use echo to print out HTML. I want to be able to use it an a conitional statement and just regular. For example

 

if (mysql_affected_rows() == 1) { //( HOW DO I ECHO HTML HERE))?

 

Thank You.

<?php
if (mysql_affected_rows() == 1) {
echo "<b>the row equals 1!</b>";
}else{
echo "The row <b>does not</b> equal 1!";
}
?>

 

although i am unsure of your questions, is that what you were wondering?

Actually I already knew that part, what i was wondering was if for example

 

if (mysql_affected_rows() == 1) { How would i insert like a form for example, or a picture, or video, or anything besides a simple "Thank you for registering with us".

lol

 

<?php
if (mysql_affected_rows() == 1) {
       print '<form name="frmName" action=page.php><input type="hidden" name="jack" value="1"> <input type="text" name="txtMe" value="" /></form>';
}else{
       print '<table><tr><td>Column here</td><td>other column here</td></tr></table>';
}
?>

 

Simple as that my friend, note echo/print are interchangeable.

echo '<p>This is some html</p>';

or

echo "<p>This is some html with a variable: " . $var . " and some more html</p>";

or

echo ("<form name=\"name\"><br /><p>This is some html with an escape character</p>");

 

hope this helps...

Now whats wrong with this?

 

echo '<form action="login.php" method="post">
<fieldset>
<p><b>Email Address:</b> <input type="text" name="email" size="20" maxlength="40" value="<?php if (isset($_POST['email'])) echo $_POST['email']; ?>" /></p>
<p><b>Password:</b> <input type="password" name="pass" size="20" maxlength="20" /></p>
<div align="center"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Login" /></div>
<input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="TRUE" />
</fieldset>
</form>
</p>
'; 

 

Because i am getting this error message

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';'

[per1os]

the <?=$varname;?> should only be used outside the <?php tags, if you are working inside those tags all you have to do is this:

 

<?php
if (isset($_POST['email']) {
    $emailDisp = $_POST['email']
}
echo '<form action="login.php" method="post">
<fieldset>
<p><b>Email Address:</b> <input type="text" name="email" size="20" maxlength="40" value="'.$emailDisp.'" /></p>
<p><b>Password:</b> <input type="password" name="pass" size="20" maxlength="20" /></p>
<div align="center"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Login" /></div>
<input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="TRUE" />
</fieldset>
</form>
</p>
'; 
?>
