If you are running windows, I suggest you download the .chm version of the php manual, great for easy searching and bookmarking pages etc.
http://uk2.php.net/distributions/manual/manual-en.chm To answer your question, the first piece of code will be, replace: $output = <<<EOQ </form> EOQ; with $output = print("</form>"); and the next replace: $output = <<<EOQ <input type="text" name="$name" value="$value" size="$size" $maxatt> EOQ; with $output =print("<input type=\"text\" name=\"$name\" value=\"$value\" size=\"$size\" $maxatt>"); When using the print statement you must remember to escape all " within the parenthesis with \ Paul ----- Original Message ----- From: "Darren" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : You are exactly right from what I can tell. I did you you suggested : and it worked! There are several of those in the document. Looked : it up in the book and have a limited idea on what it is, and also : learning from your example I have a better Idea. But I did a search : for here docs, on the PHP site and couldn't find anything. I think : I can probably figure out the other 6 or 7 in the document but I : can't figure this on out. : : : here tis : : // This function returns an HTML </form> tag. : : function end_form () : { : $output = <<<EOQ : </form> : EOQ; : : return $output; : } : : ******* : I know this must be simple but I just can't get it yet. I tried : experimenting and putting other code in there to replace it but : nothing has worked... yet. : : Thanks again for the help : : Darren : : PS here is the next one in case you felt like looking at it : : // This function returns an HTML text input field. The default size : // of the field is 10. A value and maximum data length for the field : // may be supplied. : : function text_field ($name="", $value="", $size=10, $maxlen="") : { : $maxatt = empty($maxlen) ? "" : "maxlength=\"$maxlen\""; : $output = <<<EOQ : <input type="text" name="$name" value="$value" size="$size" $maxatt> : EOQ; : return $output; : } : -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
