I'm a bit lost.

But I do see two 'http://' in those URLs.
And I see that $url_site does not have it's full value in quotes. (as busy mentioned)

You're thinking of interpolation? In perl this does make a difference, although it should not make a difference in the case of assigning a value to a scalar. It would make a difference if you were trying to assign one scalar to another however.

$scalar = "$scalar";
$scalar = '$scalar';

..are different, or at least in Perl. I don't code PHP personally.

Cheers

This is way over my head as I'm still learning php but am interested as I may run into similar problems down the line.

would the quotes be affecting the $url_site ?

would ddouble quotes around it help with \'s infront of the other quotes used or even single quotes ?

$url_site = "http://www.abc.com/test"

solved that problem. i was told to put a http :

<?php
$url_site = <a href=\"http://www.abc.com/test\" class=\"bb-url\">http://www.abc.com/test</a>
?>

but i found another path problem, which is..i got something like a folder tree. the last level, which is the child, will have this path:

<?php
<a href=\"http://http://www.abc.com/test/template/admin.php\" target=\"_blank\"><a href=\"http://http://www.abc.com/test/template/admin.php\" class=\"bb-url\">http://http://www.abc.com/test/template/admin.php</a></a>
[php/]

i put the path as: 

[PHP]
$url_site/template/admin.php
?>

wat cuold be this problem??

What I do in cases like that, is just start echoing the var in question. Keep echoing it further and further up in your script until it's correct. Then you should have a general idea of where it's getting borked.

Another option is to do a search in all documents that touch that var. It's getting changed somewhere.
