echo "" ??

[monasa]

in a php code I have this line :

echo "<TR> <TD> $nom_prenom </TD> </TR>";

It works but when I add "align "center"", I had an error:

echo "<TR align="center"> <TD> $nom_prenom </TD> </TR>";

Please help

use single quotes around the center
EX:

echo "<TR align='center'> <TD> $nom_prenom  </TD> </TR>";

When you add the other pair of double quotes it tells the echo command to stop outputting.

I disagree with jammer1221's advice.

In HTML, whether you use singlequotes or doublequotes around attributes doesn't matter. Should you have to output XHTML, it does. So I recommend that you use doublequotes around attributes.

Some something like:

echo '<TR align="center"><TD>' . $nom_prenom . '</TD></TR>';

is probably more appropriate.

you can also have:

echo "<TR align=\"center\"><TD> $nom_prenom</TD></TR>";

That will work, too.

And it's okay for a short chunk of HTML. But when you have a script that outputs a complex page, a lot of backslashes reduce readability.
