I you did put
echo $test;
right before echo '<td width="33%" bgcolor="' . $test . '">';
COPY&PASTE your code (don't write it from memory!) and show us

OK, color code is not present in HTML output. Very strange!
"echo $test;" produces hte correct output though.

Does your color code show in the HTML source code? If so, then it's an
HTML problem!

Re: below, i put in
global $test;
Thanks for the advice... I am new to PHP, but have done a lot of C in
the
past so some things are familiar.
Anyway, I tried your suggestion but no joy... color does not show, as
if i
had written bgcolor="".
Any ideas???
Cheers,
Adam.

Since you're not substituting anything in your string, you can use
single quotes and make it a bit more readable:
$test='#FFFFFF';
echo '<td width="33%" bgcolor="' . $test . '">';
is $test defined in the same context as your echo statement (e.g. is
the
echo in a function and $test outside of it)? In that case, you need
to
add $test to your function's context by means of global $test;

Below is a snip of my script. Can't get it to use $test as a color
variable!!
Can anyone help?? I have tried everything i can think of (bar just
using
a
color value instead of variable).
The context is :: for formatting an XML doc.
$test='#FFFFFF';
echo "<td width=\"33%\" bgcolor=\"".$test."\">";
Any help much appreciated,
Adam.
