escape and old html tags help

Gump

Alright i try to use css where I can for these outputs, but in this case I am having brain troubles thinking of how a style will work, so I was after trying to insert some standard html code to put into this string:


echo "<b>Monday</b><br> " .$row['monday'].$row['mprice']."<br><br>" $row['mdesc']. ;

[\php]


The above is the current code (not that it works)

The goal is for the output to resemble:

Monday <----bold
foo (mdesc) ~ price (mprice)<----bold + itallics
description (mdesc2)<----bold

I have a string like:

[code=php]

echo "<b>Tuesday</b><br> ".$row['tuesday']."<br><br>" ;

That works fine. I fail to see the difference in why that works and


echo "<b>Monday</b><br> " .$row['monday'].$row['mprice']."<br><br>" $row['mdesc']. ;

[\php]

returns Parse error: parse error, expecting `','' or `';''

Obviosly the board also hates my code as it wont highlight it properly.

;(

Remove the last period. The period is used to indicate seperation.

echo "<b>Monday</b><br> " .$row['monday'].$row['mprice']."<br><br>" $row['mdesc']. <<<-----That One;

You again! lol thanks.... well that sortof helped. I removed it, it didnt work so working that angle went with two at the end of the period. So we are good in this aspect but the original issue with formatting the text within the string itself.

Is it possible?

$get=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM days where id=2");  

$rows=mysql_num_rows($get); 
if($rows > 0) { 
    while($row=mysql_fetch_array($get)) { 
        echo "<b>Monday</b><br> " .$row['monday'].$row['mprice'].$row['mdesc']."<br><br>" ;  

		echo "<b>Tuesday</b><br> ".$row['tuesday']."<br><br>" ;  

		echo "<b>Wednesday</b><br> ".$row['wednesday']."<br><br>" ;
		echo "<b>Thursday</b><br> ".$row['thursday']."<br><br>" ; 
		echo "<b>Friday</b><br> ".$row['friday']."<br><br>" ;
		echo "<b>Saturday</b><br> ".$row['saturday']."<br><br>" ;
		echo "<b>Sunday</b><br> ".$row['sunday']."<br><br>" ;  

    } 
} 
else { 
    echo "No rows returned"; 
} 

mysql_close($dbh); 
?>

Wanting the current printout:

Monday
[monday][mprice][mdesc]

to be like:

Monday
[monday] - [mprice]
[mdesc]

Everything I do breaks it.

Well, which one is it?

Monday <----bold
foo (mdesc) ~ price (mprice)<----bold + itallics
description (mdesc2)<----bold

Monday
[monday] - [mprice]
[mdesc]

???

Here's what your last one would look like

echo "Monday
      <br><b><i>".$row['monday']."</i> - ".$row['mprice']."</b>
      <br>".$row['mdesc'];

Apparently I choose the hard way for most things.

You are my idol.

Well, the Surgeaon General warns that idolizing me could be hazardous to your health.

You've been warned 😃
