Strings

[Anon]

Hi i'm trying to pass a string through a url and i'm running into huge problems, the code i'm using is as follows:

$product_string = '<!DOCTYPE purchase SYSTEM "purchase 1.0"><purchase currency="GBP"><retailer id="3">';

then further on in the page adds this:

$product_string .= "</purchase>";

then the a href code is:

<a href="safedoorstest.php?productstring=<?echo $product_string;?>">Safe Doors Checkout</a>

it only passes through <!DOCTYPE purchase SYSTEM and then it stops, i know that the string is adding ok cause i can view the source and see it, is there anyway i can pass this code through?

thanks for your help Martin

You can't pass quotes through the URL.
Read the php manual about urlencode()
