Question

I have the following PHP code for one of my blocks

<?php global $base_url; ?>
<div class = "order-help">
<div class = "rc-img"><img src = "<?php print $base_url; ?>/sites/all/themes/businessconnect/images/contacts-box.jpg" alt = ""/></div>
</div>

This displays the image fine in my block but i also want to make the image a hyperlink to some other page. For that i used the following code

<?php global $base_url; ?>
<div class = "order-help">
<?php print( <a href="http://mylink.com/path/">
<div class = "rc-img">
<img src = "<?php print $base_url; ?>/sites/all/themes/businessconnect/images/contacts-box.jpg" alt = ""/></div>
</a>' ); ?>
</div>

But it does not work. What am i missing?
Please Help

Just add an <a> tag to the HTML.

<div class = "rc-img">
    <a href="http://mylink.com/path/">
        <img src="<?php print $base_url; ?>/sites/all/themes/businessconnect/images/contacts-box.jpg" alt=""/>
    </a>
</div>

Your code wasn’t working because print needs you to pass it a string, and you also had <?php print $base_url ?> inside of a <?php block.
