Easiest way to do that is to use sprintf() or printf():

<?php
$link_title = "click my self-referring link";
printf('a href="%s?action=bigger">%s</a>', $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'],
$link_title);
?>

Or, like you did with inline code in the HTML:

<a href="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>?action=bigger">click my
self-referring link</a>

Warm Regards,
