    Default PHP passing variables

    hello
    i have this code :
    Code:
    <?php
    $city=$_GET['city'];
    $category=$_GET['category'];
    echo '<a href="http://www.myweb.com/addform.php?city=$city">'.'['.'Add form'.']'.'</a>';
    ?>
    the link to this page contains .php?city = abcd
    and in the echo link it suppose to convert the $city from thr top to abcd

    Because the $city inside single quotes is interpreted as text. Make it:

    <?php
    $city=$_GET['city'];
    $category=$_GET['category'];
    echo "<a href=\"http://www.myweb.com/addform.php?city=$city\">".'['.'Add form'.']'.'</a>';
    ?>
