In that case, you can simply echo them out, once you're sure that $r,
and $c are actually integers.
echo "<a href='http://foo.com?r=$r&c=$c'>whatever</a>"

if not(sure they're integers, you could always
printf("<a href=\"http://foo.com?r=%d&c=%d\";>whatever</a>", $r, $c);

Alternatively you could $r = (int)$r;

or 

echo "<a href='http://foo.com?r="; . (int)$r . "&c=" . (int)$c .
"'>whatever</a>";

There's more than one way to do it.......
