parse error

[crawfd]

Created a function and want to use it later on (last line) in the following script, ..but get a parse error at the first line that calls the function.

function listmenu() {

print = "<form name=\"form2\" method=\"post\" action=\"home.php?page=manage\"><select name=\"sort\" onchange=\"document.forms['form2'].submit()\"> 
        <option selected>Sort by</option>
        <option value=\"1\">Sort by Date</option> 
        <option value=\"2\">Sort by Awareness(Low)</option> 
        <option value=\"3\">Sort by Awareness(Medium)</option> 
        <option value=\"4\">Sort by Awareness(High)</option> 
        <option value=\"5\">Sort by Past Journals</option> 
        <option value=\"6\">Sort by Recent Journals</option> 
        </select></form>";
}

$p .= "<table align=\"center\" width=\"95%\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"2\" class=\"table_border\">\n";
$p .= "<tr class=\"cells\">" . listmenu() . "</tr>";

in the function replace "print = " with "return "

Worked, ..but why won't "print = " work??

[bubblenut]

Because it's not correct syntax.
