Travis,
Your best bet is to clean up the code a bit and close and re-open the PHP tag in this method:
php:
<?php
$url = $row_rsComments[url];
if(empty($url)){
echo $row_rsComments['name'];
}
else { ?>
<a href="<?php echo $row_rsComments['url']; ?>">
<?php echo $row_rsComments['name']; ?></a>
<?php } ?>
Notice how after your else bracelet, I close the PHP to revert back to normal HTML allowing me just to sink PHP echos commands where needed without using escaping slashes... then just simply reopen the PHP tag at the end to clear the bracelet from the original command.
Cheers,
Brian
