Strange problem

[zzz]

When I output a particular text on a page I get extra quote marks in it...

I put

echo "http://www.domain.com/index.php?Action=Blink/";

and I get

http://www.domain.com/index.php?Action="B"link/

Lost...

Does it occur if that is the ONLY thing on the page (besides <?php ?>)?

[zzz]

No, must be something on this page causing it...

[ucffool]

I'd start removing chunks of the page (20% or so) until you find the section that does it, then you can look through a much smaller amount of code.

Remember that doublequotes will try and execute code in between.

use single quotes:

echo 'http://www.domain.com/index.php?Action=Blink/';

The problem is that variable interpolation cannot occur in the example since there are no variables embedded in the string literal.

Do you enjoy pissing me off? Your problem - using language new programmers to PHP CANNOT UNDERSTAND. Get your head out of your ass and start explaining things to new people will understand it.

Sure what I said may or may not have been the fully technical answer to this guys question. But I guarantee that he understood the principle in my answer more than yours.

Stop countering every little thing I say, your worse than a nag wife.

zzz has been around for some time, jeremyphphaven, so I tend to treat him/her as more skilled than the average newbie.

Unfortunately, your answer is wrong. For one thing, variables, not arbitrary code, are parsed within a string specified with double quotes. The other problem is what I mentioned: there are no variables at all in the string that zzz showed us.

Honestly, I do not know what is the problem with the given information, but I do know that your suggestion should make no difference, so I felt I had to point that out. The real problem lies elsewhere, and consequently ucffool's suggestion makes sense. It is basically a variant of "find the smallest and simplest script that demonstrates the problem".

EDIT:
Oh, and no, I do not enjoy pissing you off.
