Normally you can escape with \" but in this case I think you will find that the array will not be parsed inside double quotes, so you need to concatenate the various parts of the string with . Breaking your code down a bit to make it more easily understood: echo '</td><td><font face=verdana size=1><p>'; echo '<a href="http://www.expedia.com/pub/agent.dll?qscr=mcst&strt1='; echo $amyrow["address"] . '&city1=' . $amyrow["city"]'; echo '&stnm1=CA&zipc1=&cnty1=4">Map</p>'; echo '</td>'; -- David Robley Techno-JoaT, Web Maintainer, Mail List Admin, etc CENTRE FOR INJURY STUDIES Flinders University, SOUTH AUSTRALIA "It's only average," said Tom meanly.
