How do I get a slash to show up in php?
For example:
I had=
echo "$site $number";
I want it to have a slash in between, so I put echo "$number / $site"; So it would show up as EX. 5/mlb.com
But it gives me an error.
It tells me there's an unexpected /.
What Can I Do?

Try:
echo "<br>To send this image to friends and family, copy and paste this code: <br><font size=2 color=gray><textarea rows=3 cols=60>" . $site . "/Pics" . $number2 . "</textarea></font>";

<?php echo "{$site}"."/"."{$number}\n"; ?> and if you would like to add a line break <?php echo "{$site}"."/"."{$number}<br />\n"; ?>

Actually, that will echo the braces, which i don't think he wants....:peace:

No, it does not. I suggest you consult the PHP Manual.

My apologies - I tend to avoid using language constructs that may confuse the programmers that may inherit my code, so I usually do not put anything in quotes that will not actually print, and often forget that such things do exist as a "feature".

<?php echo $site . '/' . $number . '<br />\n'; ?> would work, too.
