Javascript in PHP, parts missing

I have a link in my php code to open a popup window.

<a href='javascript:poptastic('http://db.n00bless.com/player_info.php?players=update'>

when the script is 'live' it is missing part of the javascript and only displays

javascript:poptastic(

but when I vew the source its all there

Looks like a mis-match of quotes. You would need to post more information about how you are forming and outputting this to get specific help.

<a href="javascript:poptastic('http://db.n00bless.com/player_info.php?players=update')">
