ntwiles Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 It seems like every new language I learn, I get this exact same issue. I want to make a clickable link that will go to "viewpost?postid=" and then add the value of a variable. The variable is an array. Here's what I'm trying. I'm not really sure why it doesn't work: <?php $poststr = "<a href=\'viewpost.php?"+$postid[$num]+"\'>View This Post</a>"; echo $poststr; ?> $postid[$num] in this example should be an integer. But what it outputs is really weird. It's not "View This Post" as a link, which is what I want. It just outputs the value of the variable $postid[$num] with no link. Can someone tell me what my problem is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 In PHP you use . to concatenate strings, not +. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
