where did my syntax go wrong??

[derksj]

Hi

Can someone tell me where my syntax goes wrong?
I got a blank page

 <tr>
    <td width="25%"><input type="checkbox" name="flexplek_nieuw" value="Ja"></td>
    <td width="25%" nowrap><strong>Flexplek_nieuw:</strong></td>
    <td width="25%" nowrap><strong>Tekeningnummer</strong></td>
    <td width="25%" nowrap><p align="left">

<?php 
if ($flexplek_nieuw == '')
{
<input type='text' name='required' size='9'></td>;
} 
else 
{
<input type='text' name='not_required' size='9'></td>;
}
?>
 </tr>

You either need to [man]echo[/man] the values within the if/else blocks, or else escape out of PHP mode:

<?php
// echo method:
if ($flexplek_nieuw == '')
{
   echo "<input type='text' name='required' size='9'></td>\n";
}
// escape out of PHP method:
else
{
?>
<input type='text' name='not_required' size='9'></td>;
<?php
}
?>
