Yeah you can just exit and enter PHP mode in a PHP file as many times as you want!

 

To enter PHP mode type

 

<?php

 

to exit PHP mode type

 

?>

 

All PHP coding goes between the two php tags like so:

 

<?php

echo "hello world"!;

?>

 

Also to instert html tags into php just do sommit like:

 

<?php

echo "<a href="https://www.google.de/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=7AkjVIatDsKH8QfNkoC4DQ&gws_rd=ssl">Google!</a>";

?>

 

If you have any double quotes withing double quotes as shown above you'll need to escape the double quotes by using a in front of the double quotes.

 

Here are some additional links for PHP

<?php

 echo "<a href="https://www.google.de/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=7AkjVIatDsKH8QfNkoC4DQ&gws_rd=ssl">Google!</a>";

?>

 

If you have any double quotes withing double quotes as shown above you'll need to escape the double quotes by using a  in front of the double quotes.

 

 

or you can just put them in single quotes.

 

<?php

echo '<a href="https://www.google.de/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=7AkjVIatDsKH8QfNkoC4DQ&gws_rd=ssl">Google!</a>';

?>

 

if you want to put php variables in the middle of a print line then you can in any of these ways...

 

<?php

echo '<br />'.$a.'<br />';

echo "<br />".$a."<br />";

echo '<br />$a<br />';

?>

Hey guys, try to use the code tags. It makes everything easier to read.

[iGuest 3]

<?php  echo '<br />'.$a.'<br />';?>

This will be the fastest way, because PHP won't be searching for variables and escape characters as it would be if double quotes are used

I'm using double quotes to output only escape characters(like "n")

[iGuest 3]

There no real difference between a single or a double quote! I always use double quotes and escape double qyoutes with in double quotes! I'm not lazzy! Also with doubles you don't need do what you do above as you can just do

<?php  echo "<br />$a<br />";?>

Well poeple have different methods of using PHP! lol!

There is a difference between single and double quotes. Strings inside single quotes are not run through for escaped characters or variables-they are simply printed. Strings inside double quotes are. As a result, the parsing of single-quoted strings is much faster than the parsing of double-quoted strings, especially if the string contains a bunch of variables and/or escaped characters. In a small script, the difference is not noticable. However, if you are designing a large application, then you should ALWAYS use single quotes for a string that does not contain an escaped character or a variable. It may also be worth it to use single quotes for everything but escaped characters, and put variables outside the quotes, like in karliks example above.

I heard And read something about the tag or function

<?phpHTML_BLOCK>>here the HTML.<<END_HTML?>

But how does this works exactly.. :oops:
