Lassie Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I have constructed a link but have a parse error I cant solve. The error is unexpected T_Constant_Encapsed_String <?php $product_id=13; ?> <a href="<?php'show_book.php?product_id='.$product_id;?>">Order Now</a> I know this is basic but any help gratefully received.

kratsg Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 If you really want it shorter.. <a href="show_book.php?product_id=<?=$product_id ?>">Order Now</a> Should work.
