Spaces in url

[Anon]

Please help

I am trying to pass variables across pages in a <href tag>

it works great in ie 5 because ie 5 puts in the %20 for the spaces in my variable outputs.

of course netscape does not do this..

so i try and use the URLENCODE()

see here.

echo "<a href=\"bookingform.php?ourprice=$myrow[rd_ourprice]&urlencode(tourname=$myrow[TourName]);&depdate=$myrow[dep_format]\">Book</a>";

I have also tried
tourname = urlencode($myrow[TourName]);
<?php echo urlencode($myrow[TourName]); ?>

with an with out "

does not work??!!!

any suggestions?

You can't just embed a function call inside a quoted string.

Write it this way:

&nbsp;&nbsp;"...ourprice=$myrow[rd_ourprice]&tourname=" .
&nbsp;&nbsp;urlencode($myrow[TourName]) .
&nbsp;&nbsp;"&depdate=...";

Come to think of it,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;tourname = urlencode($myrow[TourName]);

would have worked if you had remembered to include the $ on $tourname so it was an actual variable, i.e.:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$tourname = urlencode($myrow[TourName]);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;echo "&lt;a href=\"....&tourname=$tourname&d...";
