Form Links

Using PHP, ON a results page the email addresses are not " hot" linked. I figured out how to make websites links work..

Using CS3 - what php code works - mailto: ????

Making a mailto link with php code is no different than a regular mailto link. You just need to start the href attribute out with a mailto:, if the column from your db is returning an email address then the link might look like this:

php:
<a href="mailto:<?php echo $row_yourRS['your column'?>"><?php echo $row_yourRS['your column'?></a>

Your welcome. This type of dynamic html using the php can be a little tricky when you have not used it before but with a little practice it will become second nature to make use of the php and html together to achieve your result.

Creating a Link from an Insert PHP Page to an Update Page`

I have an insert page. On pressing the submit button I want the page to go to the related update page.

Below is the code for the url direct:
$WA_redirectURL = "properties_Detail.php?MainPropertiesID=".$row_WADAproperties['MainPropertiesID'];

When I fill in the form and select submit however, to goes to the update record for the FIRST record in the database!

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

Many thanks and regards,

Are there any redirects further up on the page? If there are, you should set those to blank so they wont forward to anywhere before getting to that redirect code.
