you are assigning the variable within the function, then calling the function with the variable. this is a variable scoping issue. try this: <? function testPassVar($url) { echo "<a href=\"$url\">Click</a>"; } $company = "TEST"; $url = 'asdfasdf.php3?name='.$company; testPassVar($url); ?> -----Original Message----- From: Abe [mailto:abe@fish.tm] Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2001 1:35 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] Function -> Sending URL's Hey there, this is a strange one - I want to send a URL to a function that includes varibles. Those variables should be taken from within the function - as in the example below the link I want is: asdfasdf.php3?name=TEST , but that is not what I get as you can see. Does anybody know a way around this - The example is simpler than what I am actually doing and the value of $company must come from the variable. Thanks, Abe <? function testPassVar($url) { $name = "TEST"; echo "<a href=\"$url\">Click</a>"; } $url = 'asdfasdf.php3?name=$company'; testPassVar($url); echo "This is a $name"; ?> -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
