[RESOLVED] conditional echoes

BEFOR

I need to place all this within the the echo, but get nothing but a blank page when doing so. (so this only shows when values are present.)

<?php if ($three!=''){echo 'right in here';}
?>

Here's is what's being echoed:

<?php echo $row_State3['State']; ?></font></strong><br>
<table width="" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <?php 
$tdcount=0; 
do { 
$tdcount++; 
if ($tdcount==6) { $tdcount=1; } 
if ($tdcount==1) { echo '<tr>'; } 
?>
  <td valign="top">
      <table>
        <tr>
          <td width=""><input type="checkbox" name="commercial[]" 
value="<?=$row_State3['CountyFIPS']?>"<?php echo $row_State3['mtfkparam']>0?"checked":""; ?>>
          </td>
          <td width=""> <font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">
            <?=$row_State3['County']?>
          </font></td>
        </tr>
      </table>
    </td>
      <?php 
if ($tdcount==5) { echo '</tr>'; } 
} while ($row_State3 = mysql_fetch_assoc($State3)); 
?>
</table>

I'm not sure where to begin on this. Cutting and pasting dosn't do it.

By "blank page" do you mean nothing at all, or HTML that just happens to render to nothing visible?

BEFOR

nothing is on the page. completely blank. (sorry, original post above now says when "values" are present, not "errors" as it was)

THREAD IS RESOLVED. Thank you for the help.

Why would you have PHP tags inside PHP tags?

There aren't any in the code snippet you posted. Post the whole thing.

For the benefit of people with a similar problem who are searching for possible solutions, it would be nice if you said how.

Yes, I should have.

note that the <font> and <strong> are entered prior to this:

<?php if ($three!='')
  {
  echo $row_State3['State']; ?>
                      </strong></font><br>
                      <table width="" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
            <?php 
  $tdcount=0; 
  do { 
  $tdcount++; 
  if ($tdcount==6) { $tdcount=1; } 
  if ($tdcount==1) { echo '<tr>'; } 
  ?>
          <td valign="top">
              <table>
                <tr>
                  <td width=""><input type="checkbox" name="commercial[]" 
  value="<?=$row_State3['CountyFIPS']?>"<?php echo $row_State3['mtfkparam']>0?"checked":""; ?>>
                  </td>
                  <td width=""> <font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">
                    <?=$row_State3['County']?>
                  </font></td>
                </tr>
              </table>
            </td>
              <?php 
  if ($tdcount==5) { echo '</tr>'; } 
  } while ($row_State3 = mysql_fetch_assoc($State3)); 
  ?>
                      </table>
                      <?php
  } 
;?>
