you are assigning the variable within the function, then calling the
function with the variable.
this is a variable scoping issue.
try this:
<?
function testPassVar($url) {
echo "<a href=\"$url\">Click</a>";
}
$company = "TEST";
$url = 'asdfasdf.php3?name='.$company;
testPassVar($url);
?>

Subject: [PHP] Function -> Sending URL's
Hey there,
this is a strange one - I want to send a URL to a function that includes
varibles. Those variables should be taken from within the function - as in
the example below the link I want is:
asdfasdf.php3?name=TEST , but that is not what I get as you can see.
Does anybody know a way around this - The example is simpler than what I am
actually doing and the value of $company must come from the variable.
Thanks,
Abe
<?
function testPassVar($url) {
$name = "TEST";
echo "<a href=\"$url\">Click</a>";
}
$url = 'asdfasdf.php3?name=$company';
testPassVar($url);
echo "This is a $name";
?>
