Problem with < form action href ... PHP variable not working

[mrherman]

This works:

form action="http://localhost/mysite/css/screen.css" method="post">

 

This does not work:

<?php
$link_1 = "http://localhost/mysite/css/screen.css" ;
$link_2 = '"' . "http://localhost/mysite/css/screen.css" .'"' ;
?>

<form action=<?php echo $link_1;?>  method="post">
<form action=<?php echo $link_2;?>  method="post">

 

Why do neither of the PHP variables work?

 

Thanks!

Missing the quotes.

<form action="<?php echo $link_1;?>"  method="post">

Well, thank you very much!  I tried everything BUT that!

I have to ask why you're having a form post to a .css file?

[mrherman]

  Well, actually, in reality I'm not.  See, none of my "variable links" were working -- form, redirection, etc. -- and I couldn't figure it out.  So, to illustrate my error on the forum, I just copied and posted a link, which happened to be a reference to the CSS file.  I didn't even notice that I had done this.  Good catch!
