Proper syntax within php print statement?

[mugitty]

Can anyone tell me the proper syntax to use to enter a dynamic item within a php print statement? (On product_info.php)

 

<?php

$prod_quantity = tep_get_products_stock($products_id);

switch ($prod_quantity) {

case 0:

print "<a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=Freight Quote Request - I want to enter the product_model here"><font color=red>email</font></a> us for a quote";

break;

 

Thanks :)

I usually do it like this...

 

<?php

print ("blah blah blah".$variable."blah blah blah");

?>

 

so.. to put in a variable you end the quote put the . then the variable, then another . then continue with your quotes...

 

so for your example it would be something along the lines of

 

<?php

$prod_quantity = tep_get_products_stock($products_id);

switch ($prod_quantity) {

case 0:

print "<a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=Freight Quote Request - ".$product_model.""><font color=red>email</font></a> us for a quote";

break;

Thank you so much!

 

I had tried it that way with no result, but your post reinforced for me that it should work that way - turns out that I had to define the model as

$product_info_values['products_model']

since it doesn't actually appear anywhere as just

$products_model :oops:

 

Works a treat!

 

Thanks again :wink:

hehe yeah, usually when nothing displays where you have a variable it's because the variable hasn't been created/given a value... kind of annoying that php let's you use variables that haven't been created instead of giving an error.
