Newbie ' If Statement' Question

Hello Folks, I would like to be able to wrap a 'form' inside a php 'if statement' - so that the form will appear if the 'if condition' is met. - most likely I cannot have a <?php tag inside another one - and am sure I'm doing other things wrong also... - now I get the error - Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in... Q: What is the best way to accomplish this goal? ----------------------- <?php if ($emp_row->getField('testfield') !="") { print "<form name="edit" method="post" action="emp_edit_result2.php"> <input type="hidden" name="Status" value="Active"/> <input type="hidden" name="The_Date" value=""/> <input type="hidden" name="-recid" value="<?php echo $emp_row->getRecordId(); ?>"> <input type="submit" name="edit_submit" value="Activate"> </form> ";}else {print "Non Print";} ?> -- Thanks - RevDave Cool7 @ hosting4days . com [db-lists]
