Hi,
You don't want " or ' in your url.
use urlencode to pass them around safely.
So try:
<?
$myUrl = "movie_detailso3.php";
// assuming $movie_id is a number, you do not need urlencoding
$myUrl .= "?movie_id=".$movie_id;
// assuming coll_sort need encoding:
$myUrl .= "&coll_sort=".urlencode("revie_date");
?>
<a href="<?= $myUrl ?>">sort on review date</a>
Now receive it like:
$sortorder = $_GET["coll_sort"];
Also note the & instead of &. It was not your problem, but the & is
better, according to W3C.
