I want to add custom link that is stored in a value inside a php button. How do I do it?
I am trying to get this sorted how ever its not doing it, it just returns nothing or sometimes returns the current page link instead. I am looking towards adding my $lnk to this code in href section.
This is what I have:
echo '<input class="btnnn-class" type=btnnn-class onClick=location.href="" .$lnk value="Contact Buyer">';
Where $lnk is my link inside of it.
Al Fonce told correct answer and described wel He forget one double quotes after $lnk . '\'
echo '<input class="btnnn-class" type="btnnn-class" onClick="window.location.href=\'' . $lnk . '\'" value="Contact Buyer">' ;
There is several typos in your code : you did not open and/or close quotes when needed. You have too surround your classes with double quotes and your onClick value too. Inside it, the location href is a string too that should be inside quotes.
Both php and javascript allow single and double quotes to delimitate a string, but you should use only double quotes for html attributes.
So:
' for the whole echo statement (but varaiables are not interpreted inside single quotes)," for the html attributes.' for the javascript value, and escape it (becasue they are inside another php single quoted string).The code:
echo '<input class="btnnn-class" type="btnnn-class" onClick="window.location.href=\'' . $url . '\'" value="Contact Buyer">' ;
Or use double quotes for php and espace the html attributes ones, the variable will be interpreted:
echo "<input class=\"btnnn-class\" type=\"btnnn-class\" onClick=\"window.location.href=$url\" value=\"Contact Buyer\">" ;
Try this:
echo '<input class="btnnn-class" type="btnnn-class" onClick="window.location.href=\'$lnk\'" value="Contact Buyer">' ;
Because of the quotes, you are facing the problem.
