how do I put HTML brackets inside PHP

[barniegilly]

hi silly little question but if I want to bracket something inside PHP how do I do it eg my code is

 

  <th class="alignright"><?php echo $ass_descrip; ?> 
                           (<?php echo $ass_accro ; ?>)  <?php echo FindTypeName ($type_id); ?></th>

 

printing out        British Eventing  (BE) 

 

But the brackets at the moment are outside the PHP I want to put a conditional on it and include the brackets inside my conditional statement.?

$hello="Hello Freaks";
echo "(" . $hello .")";

You should keep the brackets outside of PHP.

Because if a non-coder wants to carry out work on a redesign, he/she doesn't want to/know how to mess around with PHP.
