Just print it as an ahref tag.

$url="http://bla.com";

echo "<a href=".$url.">".$url."</a>";

Thanks !

But what if that url is placed on a sql table ?

How can i get it to load url from the table or column called "url" ?

Thanks,

My question :-

Hi i have tried this but infact what i need is not call a url placed on a URL table. Does this command work in some other way to load a url from MySQL DB ?

Thanks,

Hello,vincent

I tried your help because i also have that problem.
But it does'nt work
I'm a very php beginner
Why have you a dot before and after $url?:

echo "<a href=".$url.">".$url."</a>";

many thanks for your help.

tchau

the dot means "concatenate" or "make these strings into one big string".

$sTotal = "left"."right";
now $sTotal will contain "leftright";

or:

$sLeft = "left";
$sRight = "right";
$aTotal = $sLef.$sRight;

now $sTotal will contain "leftright";

$sLeft = "left";
$sRight = "right";
$aTotal = $sLef." and ".$sRight;

now $sTotal will contain "left and right";
