I am trying to do the following:
I want to assign a string to a variable then use that variable in an
HREF as follows:
<html>
<head>
<title>Test Doc</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<?php
$var = "123.htm";
?>
The variable $var has a value of:
<?=$var?><br />
<a href="http://www.widgets.com/$var">click here </a>
</body>
</html>
I print out the variable in the script and it is as it should be.
However, when you place your cursor over the "click here" on the
bottom of the page you see www.widgets.com/$var
If I look at the source, I do not see the php portion of the script. I
am new to this and do not know if that is normal.
Why won't the href statement utilize the value of the variable as
oppposed to the variable itself?
Again, I am a beginner and any guidance would be much appreciated.
