Re: Displaying a html line as html

[Todd Cary <todd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jochem -

Sorry!  The prior message was incorrect.  Here it is corrected.

Here is the executing code:

  $page_string   = make_page_string($page_string, "Search");
  $script_string = make_script_string($script_string, "search.php");
print("Page_string: " . $page_string . "<br>");
print("Script_string: " . $script_string . "<br>");
print("Url: " . $url . "<br>");
  $page_path     = make_page_path($page_string, $script_string, $url);
print($page_path);

To see it execute, this URL will do it:
http://209.204.172.137/casesearch/php/search.php?search_text=***&page_string=Home&script_string=home.php


The Title area contains

 &nbsp;&nbsp;<? print($page_path); ?>


The function that creates the link(s) is


  /* Make page path */
  function make_page_path($page_string, $script_string, $path) {
    $scripts = explode('|', $script_string);
    $pages   = explode('|', $page_string);
    for ($i = 0; $i < count($scripts); $i++) {
      if ($i < count($scripts) - 1) {
        if ($i == 0) {
          $page_path = '&lt;a href="' . $path . $scripts[$i] . '"&gt;'
. $pages[$i] . '&lt;/a&gt;';
        } else {
          $page_path = $page_path . '-&gt;' . '&lt;a href="' . $path .
$scripts[$i] . '"&gt;' . $pages[$i] . '&lt;/a&gt;';
        }
      } else {
        if ($i == 0) {
          $page_path = $pages[$i];
        } else {
          $page_path = $page_path . '-&gt;' . $pages[$i];
        }
      }
    }
//print("Page_path: " . $page_path . "<br>");
    return $page_path;
  }




Thank you for your help...
