Question

I have this code (see below) that I’m having trouble echoing the variables out. On the 5th line is an echo, within that echo is a load of html (which I’ve escaped the quotation marks) and a load of variables. I can’t get the variables to echo out within the main echo.

Update:
Also within there is an onclick that needs to be taken into account.

<?php
   if(
       in_array("Branding", get_field('categories')) && $grid_title == "Branding"
   ){
     echo "
        <div class=\"grid-box\" onclick=\"location.href='<?php echo get_page_link($post->ID) ?>';\" style=\"cursor: pointer;\">
        <div class=\"phase-1\">
           <img class=\"grid-image\" src=\"<?php echo $fields->thumb_image; ?>\" alt=\"<?php echo $fields->company_name; ?>\" height=\"152\" width=\"210\" />
           <div class=\"grid-heading\">
                <h2><?php echo $fields->company_name; ?></h2>
                <h3><?php echo implode(', ',get_field('categories'));?></h3>
            </div> 
        </div>
        <div class=\"phase-2\">
            <div class=\"grid-info\">
                <h4><?php echo $fields->project_name; ?></h4>
                <p><?php echo $fields->description; ?></p>
            </div>
            <div class=\"grid-heading-hover\">
                <h2><?php echo $fields->company_name; ?></h2>
                <h3><?php echo implode(', ',get_field('categories'));?></h3>
            </div> 
        </div>
    </div>
     ";
   }
   ?>

You can’t use echo within an echo, you just need to concatenate your strings properly like so:

     $Content =  "
        <div class=\"grid-box\" onclick=\"location.href='" . get_page_link($post->ID). "';\" style=\"cursor: pointer;\">
        <div class=\"phase-1\">
           <img class=\"grid-image\" src=\"" . $fields->thumb_image . "\" alt=\"" . $fields->company_name. "\" height=\"152\" width=\"210\" />
           <div class=\"grid-heading\">
                <h2> " . $fields->company_name . "</h2>
                <h3>" . implode(', ',get_field('categories')) . "</h3>
            </div> 
        </div>
        <div class=\"phase-2\">
            <div class=\"grid-info\">
                <h4>" . $fields->project_name . "</h4>
                <p>" . $fields->description . "</p>
            </div>
            <div class=\"grid-heading-hover\">
                <h2>" . $fields->company_name . "</h2>
                <h3>" . implode(', ',get_field('categories')). "</h3>
            </div> 
        </div>
    </div>";
  echo $Content;
