[SOLVED] trouble with IF....

[nec9716]

this is a part of my script:

When I run in I have  an error on the input line

 

echo "<tr>";
echo "<td width=10%>";
if ($action == 'edit')
echo "<input name="name" type="text" value="<?php echo $tpname?>">";
else
echo "<td width=10%>";
echo'<select name="pname" size="1" onchange="setItemListBox()">';
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result6, MYSQL_NUM))
{
echo '<option value="' . $row[0] . '">' . $row[1] . '</option>';
}
echo '</select>';
}
echo "</td >";

[marcus]

echo "<input name=\"name\" type=\"text\" value=\"".$tpname."\">";

yes that work better I still have to find out but I miss or I have too much bracket somewhere

 

thank you mgallforever

 

why when we do input we need to put \

and

when I do select I don't need it?
