In my forumdisplay.php I want to be able to display a separate link dependent on the forum they are reading at the time.

This is what I have:

if ($forumid==4) {
$ForumNews = "<IMG SRC=\"/icons/icon4.gif\" height=15 width=15 border=0>&nbsp;&nbsp;<A HREF=\"/rules/$forumid.html\"><B><smallfont Color=Red>Posting Guidelines for the Software For Sale Forum</B></A><BR><IMG SRC=\"/icons/icon4.gif\" height=15 width=15 border=0>&nbsp;&nbsp;<A HREF=\"http://www.xchangecity.com/\"><B>Exchange your used DVDs and CDs here!</smallfont></B></A><BR><IMG SRC=\"/icons/icon4.gif\" height=15 width=15 border=0>&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><largefont color=red><U>NO AUCTIONS! ALL SALE ITEMS MUST HAVE A POSTED PRICE</U></largefont></B>";
}
elseif ($forumid==5) {
$ForumNews = "<IMG SRC=\"/icons/icon4.gif\" height=15 width=15 border=0>&nbsp;&nbsp;<A HREF=\"/rules/$forumid.html\"><B><smallfont color=red>Posting Guidelines for the Hardware For Sale Forum</smallfont></B></A><BR><IMG SRC=\"/icons/icon4.gif\" height=15 width=15 border=0>&nbsp;&nbsp;<A HREF=\"http://www.wildin.com/addatrade.asp\"><B><largefont Color=Red Size="3"><U>NO AUCTIONS! ALL SALE ITEMS MUST HAVE A POSTED PRICE</U></largefont></B></A>";
} else {
$ForumNews = "";
}

This keeps giving me a parsing error.

Any ideas as to what would be causing the error?

Thanks,
Parker

Should be Size=\"3\" :)

hi,

I have added some '\' before the '"'s. You forget them some times. Try the following code. If it doesn?t work, I give you an alternative way to display different links.

Greetings, Daniel

or else use a ' instead of a " : $string = "<font size='2'>your string</font>";

Some sort of qq function/operator (like in perl) would be usefull in php btw

Thanks for all the suggestions. I just needed the \"3\"
as suggested. Forgot about that.

I agree that some sort of qq function in PHP would be nice.
