Re: Re: site path

Ok, then I honestly don't understand why anyone would rather write this echo "<a href='" . $myURL . "home'>Go home</a>"; instead of this echo "<a href='$myURL/home'>Go home</a>"; IMHO, the second comes more natural to write, is easier to understand at a glance, is less prone to errors and, well, it's shorter!

Not exactly. Single quotes are fine. I missed the fact that the single quotes here

echo("<A HREF='$my_URLhome'>Go home</A>");

will be included in the source--sorry about that. Well, then, to rewrite the code earlier,

echo '<a href="' . $my_URL . 'home">Go home</a>';

this way: echo "<a href='" . $myURL . "home'>Go home</a>"; that would still not give you the "trailing slash" problem. In other words, it's just a matter of how you write the code... ;) - E On Friday, October 11, 2002 1:06 AM Bogdan Stancescu wrote:

I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to point out - does XHTML require double quotes? Bogdan @ Edwin wrote:

Just a thought... If you're going to write an XHTML compatible code, you wouldn't really

have

this problem -->

echo("<A HREF='$my_URLhome'>Go home</A>");

since you'll probably write something like this: echo '<a href="' . $my_URL . 'home">Go home</a>'; > Of course, I didn't mean that you can't do that with HTML...
