Re: HTML does not work withing PHP
Please see the FAQ.
There’s also lots of general information about diagnosing problems and asking for help on the forum.

Re: HTML does not work withing PHP
The FAQ didn’t help much.
What I’m saying is that when I use
<txp:php>
echo "hi";
</txp:php>
It displays the word hi.
Today I found that it works when I do this:
<txp:php>
echo "<strong>hi</strong>";
</txp:php>
But for the following code (copied from About.com) nothing shows up.
<txp:php>
//By Angela Bradley for PHP @ About.com
//Assign the image and link URLs here, you can add more following this formatt
$Img1 = "http://goat.ws/board/images/avatars/114693804644304f35a8399.jpg";
$Url1 = "http://www.goat.ws";
$Img2 = "http://goat.ws/board/images/smiles/gamesc.gif";
$Url2 = "http://www.identity.st";
$Img3 = "http://goat.ws/board/images/avatars/11415438874159139eaacbe.gif";
$Url3 = "http://php.about.com";
//Leave the first number as 1, and set the second to how many banners you have
$num = rand (1,3);
//This creates the variables
$Image = ${'Img'.$num};
$URL = ${'Url'.$num};
//This actully outputs the banner
Print "<a href=".$URL."><img src=".$Image." border=0></a>";
</txp:php>

Re: HTML does not work withing PHP
I edited your post a little ;) How do I post tags and code on the forum?
