Simple question, is the syntax correct?

[Apollo6]

Some code up here...

$new_url = $row["rpt_path"];
?>
<a href=&quot;<? echo &quot;$new_url&quot;; ?>&quot;></a>
<?

Some code down here...

If $new_url is a complete url that I know works, should the above code display the page- $new_url

How about trying it and seeing if it works?

Ummm... I did... It didn't pull up the page.

I modified it some:

$new_url = $row[&quot;rpt_path&quot;];
echo &quot;<a href=\&quot;$new_url\&quot;>$rpt_name</a>

This puts a link on the page, that when clicked opens the page.

I just didn't want the extra click.

You already did it in your other post:

$new_url = $row[&quot;rpt_path&quot;];
header(&quot;Refresh: 1; url=$new_url&quot;

The reason I am trying this direction is because my other post with this code puts me in a loop:

$new_url = $row[&quot;rpt_path&quot;];
header(&quot;Refresh: 1; url=$new_url&quot;

By loop, I mean that when I click the 'Back' button in the browser, it sends me back to the page that redirected me to the report I just got through looking at. Once in that page, it refreshes and sends me back to the report. Obviously, it's in how I've written the script.

I'm looking it over now.
