Variable in link

darko886

Hello, I have this code:

echo ' 
<tr> 
<td><p style="font-size:x-small;"><a href="flightplans.php?division=" echo $division;  "&aircraft='.$row['Aircraft'].'" STYLE="TEXT-DECORATION: NONE">'.$row['Aircraft'].'</a></td> 
</tr>';

But it always cuts off at division= because obviously im doing something wrong with the $division... how do I add the $division variable into that link properly?
Thanks!

echo '<tr><td><p style="font-size:x-small;"><a href="flightplans.php?division='.$division.'&aircraft='.$row['Aircraft'].'" STYLE="TEXT-DECORATION: NONE">'.$row['Aircraft'].'</a></td></tr>';

EDIT: Sorry - didn't see the semi-colon in there... should be correct now.

You cannot embed an echo statement within another echo like that. Either use concatenation (using the "." operator) like you did elsewhere, or you might want to consider doing something like the following, which also provides more robust functionality:

printf('<tr>
<td><p style="font-size:x-small;">
<a href="flightplans.php?division=%s&amp;aircraft=%s" STYLE="TEXT-DECORATION: NONE">%s</a>
</p></td>
</tr>',
   urlencode($division),
   urlencode($row['Aircraft']),
   htmlentities($row['Aircraft'])
);
