I'm sorry. You want to what? I really couldn't figure this one out. Let me see if I got lucky. The user inputs a URL into a form. Someone else searches (for something unspecified) and this link shows up. You want the link to work. If this is the case, you simply need to echo the form variable (we'll call it $url) like either of the following. Which you choose depends on which you like more. <a href="<? print "$url"; ?>"><? print "$url"; ?></a> <? print "<a href=\"".$url."\">".$url."</a>"; ?> If that's not what you're trying to do, perhaps you can explain a bit more thoroughly.

This is my second post because I accidently deleted the answer from the first. I have a table in a db to store job listings. What I am looking for is how to write the code to insert a web page link or alt text by way of form so that when a search is done the link will appear as part of the results and be functional. Please help. Thanks. [input] --> -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
