Problems with sending in PHP code

[RonenMymon]

Hey guys,

I'm very new with PHP.
I'm trying to define a value that I've read from MySql DB, as an email link.
(the 'name' will be a link to the 'email', both are values from DB).

Something like this:

<TD><a href="mailto:",$row['email'],">",$row['name'],"</a></TD>

Well.... It's wrong. But why....? I have no idea how to write it currectly.

Will apriciate any help !
Thank you,

Ronen

Assuming that you have extracted the data from the database correctly, something like this should work

[code]<?
$email = $row['email'];
$name = $row['name'];
?>

<TD><a href="mailto:<?=$email?>"><?=$name?></a></TD>[/code]

If its not what your looking for, post more of your code for us to see...

I would advise you not use <?= ?> tas as these are not enabled by defualt and so if use them some scripts may not function correct in different PHP setups. So I'd advise to do the following stead.
[code]<?
$email = $row['email'];
$name = $row['name'];
?>

<TD><a href="mailto:<?php echo $email; ?>"><?php echo $name; ?></a></TD>[/code]
