Question

i have a table in the database consists of three columns and 4 rows. And now i want to set hyperlink for each of the entity present in the 3rd column of the table in the database and display the output.

i tried printing the values of array as

echo "<td>", $row['a'], "</td><td>", $row['b'] ,"</td><td>", "<a href=\"http://foo/foo/".$row['link']."\">"."view"."</a>","</td>" ;?>

where a,b and link are the column name of 1,2 and 3 respectively. and i want to hyperlink the html pages. How can i do it? when i try to run my code, its goes to the folder http://foo/foo/

Remove the echo part and just output as HTML. This way you don’t have to worry about all that messy concatenation (you’re using , instead of ., which is valid, but in this context is unnecessary).

<?php

// code here

?>

<td><?= $row['a'] ?></td><td><?= $row['b'] ?></td><td><a href="http://foo/foo/<?= $row['link'] ?>">view</a></td>
