href gives a button instead of link

[newuser666]

<?
echo("input type=\"button\" value=\"$task[task]\" onlick=\"window.location.href='taskedit.php?p=$task[id]'\">\n);
?>

the output is a button not a link to edit the task in taskedit.php

What am i doing wrong. Need help. thx

1. You don't have to use the echo("Something"); syntax. you can do like this: echo "Something";

2. Try this:

<? 
echo "<input type=\"button\" value=\"$task[task]\"
onClick=\"window.location.href='taskedit.php?p=$task[id]'\">\n"; 
?>
