[DrkFusion]

PHP Code:

$example = addslashes('<table><tr valign="top"><td>HI</td><td>Hi</td></tr></table>'); 


Not work

just try this:

PHP Code:

$example = '<table><tr valign="top"><td>HI</td><td>Hi</td></tr></table>'; 


[DrkFusion]

Gives me Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /home/virtual/site19/fst/var/www/html/vbnews.php on line 5

[DrkFusion]

Wait it works

[Xenon]

well, as i said

i think in vb3 code all strings are with ' '.
in vb2 there are some combinations..

[DrkFusion]

Ah...very cool
Thanks again, yet another thing I have learned from you :-p

PHP Code:

<?php
    $message = 'Hi there';
    echo '<table><tr valign="top"><td>' . $message . '</td></tr></table>';
?>

Keep in mind that a good way of organizing your print and echo statements is by concatenating strings. The whole point of double quotes is to allow interpolation. Personally I prefer inline html over echo.

PHP Code:

<?php $message = 'Hi there'; ?> 
<table><tr valign="top"><td><?=$message?></td></tr></table>

Can't you also do:

<?php
$somevar="http://www.apple.com/";

echo <<< DONE
<a href="$somevar">asdf</a>
DONE
?>

Yes, but you will retain a significant performance hit through larger scripts if you do.

Don't forget the semi-colon
