Question

I have this print statement:

print "<a href='#' onClick='document.getElementById(\"myheader\").innerHTML=\"\"'".$rowQuery['keyword']."&nbsp; ·&nbsp;</a>";

Unfortunately, it prints:

<a ·&nbsp;="" keyword&nbsp;="" onclick="document.getElementById("myheader").innerHTML=""" href="#"/>

I have no idea why, any help would be useful. Because of the way it is printed, I can’t see anything on the screen and the functionality does not work either.

Note ($rowQuery[‘keyword’] = “keyword” in this case so it is being evaluated, that is not the problem. The problem is that it prints it weird)

(When I use HTML instead of php to print it using this line:

<a href="#" onClick="document.getElementById('myheader').innerHTML=''">ALL</a>

it works completely fine)

Answer 1

I think you are missing the closure of the <a... tag

You have:<a href=... some description</a>

Instead of <a href=... >some description</a>

Try something like this (not sure I got the location of the ‘>‘ correct:

print "<a href='#' onClick='document.getElementById(\"myheader\").innerHTML=\"\"'".$rowQuery['keyword']">."&nbsp; ·&nbsp;</a>";
