It's just the syntax: 1. Don't use the "/" after .php: <a href="abc.php?day= 2. Don't use echo inside the string: <a href='abc.php?day=$start_day'></a> 3. Check the use of double and single quotes. If you use: echo "<a href='abc.php?day=$start_day'>abc</a>"; maybe you will get the link you want. Gabriel.
