how do i make this work?

how do i make this work <?php echo 'http://www.vc-source.com/newvcsource/screenshots.php?image=downloads/'.$cid;'/'.$img_file_name; ?>

What's it meant to do and what is $cid and $image_file_name?

its php...

:rolleyes:

Ok, I'll ask again

What is it meant to do?

What are $cid and $image_file_name, where are you getting the values of them from?

What isn't working?

does it really matter?

Well yeah, can't help if I don't know what I'm supposed to be helping you with

im saying i think there is something wrong witht the script i gave u is there any problems in there as i am new to php

Take the semi-colon out from here

'.$cid;'


Replace the ; with .

And please give some error or say what it's meant to do when you ask for help. Just saying how do i make this work when no one knows what it's meant to do is not gonna get you help.

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' in /home/vcsource/public_html/newvcsource/download/test2.php on line 35

thanks very much and sorry for not explaining myself

If you want to use a $variable inside of a string then use double quotes

"http:// or whatever=" . $cid . "some text"

if you use '' it will show up exactly as you typed it $cid
