FW: [PHP] How to open random Flash page with hyperlink?

-----Original Message----- > From: murugesan [mailto:mukeshgct@hotmail.com] > some more changes > <param name="movie" value="<?php echo $value ?>"> > <embed src="<?php echo $value ?>"></embed> Murugesan, both ways are correct. Its just that i'm used to using the short open tag :) <http://au.php.net/manual/en/configuration.directives.php#ini.short-open-tag> http://au.php.net/manual/en/configuration.directives.php#ini.short-open-tag short_open_tag <http://au.php.net/manual/en/language.types.boolean.php> boolean Tells whether the short form (<? ?>) of PHP's open tag should be allowed. If you want to use PHP in combination with XML, you can disable this option in order to use <?xml ?> inline. Otherwise, you can print it with PHP, for example: <?php echo '<?xml version="1.0"'; ?>. Also if disabled, you must use the long form of the PHP open tag (<?php ?>). Note: This directive also affects the shorthand <?=, which is identical to <? echo. Use of this shortcut requires short_open_tag to be on. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cody Phanekham" < <mailto:Cody.Phanekham@salmat.com.au> Cody.Phanekham@salmat.com.au> To: < <mailto:php-general@lists.php.net> php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Friday, August 22, 2003 9:32 AM Subject: RE: [PHP] How to open random Flash page with hyperlink?
