When I load the following code using php...
<?php <h1>Some text</h1> ?>
the tags are printed as text -
<h1>Some text</h1>
Any ideas?
Found the answer - see my answer.
You need to output the actual HTML code if you are placing any HTML code within PHP.
You can achieve this using echo().
<?php
echo("<h1>Some text</h1>");
?>
<h1><?php Some text ?></h1>
why dont you try this.
You must print it in order for it to appear the way you want it to
<?php echo"<h1>Some text</h1>" ?>
like this
Found the issue, the content-type was set as json.
<?php echo "<h1>Some text</h1>"; ?>
<?php echo "<h1>Some text</h1>"; ?>
if you want to show a variable
<?php
$_varTest=2;
echo "<h1>Show variable {$_varTest}</h1>"; ?>

I see two methods but I don't know which is better, should I insert a div tag like this :
echo "<div>";
or like this ?
?> <div> <?php
There's no right answer to this.
When displaying a lot of HTML, I normally use ?> <div> <?php. This is especially true for when looping over data from a database, I would use:
<?php while ($row == $query->fetchObject() ) : ?>
<div class="row-<?php echo $row->id ?>">
//Some more of the data
</div>
<? endwhile; ?>
However, displaying only a little, I normally just echo it.
<?php echo "Hello, my name is <strong>Joe Doe<strong>"; ?>
I would encourage you to play with it and find what you like best.
The text editor i am using has the color formatting, when you are echoing things, it only all comes out the same color, so if you are outside of PHP you get the benefit of the color co-ordination.
I was referring the page.tpl.php(Drupal 7 theme) for understanding the code. I found the following code,
<?php if ($site_name || $site_slogan): ?>
<!-- !Site name and Slogan -->
<div<?php print $hgroup_attributes; ?>>
<?php if ($site_name): ?>
<h1<?php print $site_name_attributes; ?>><?php print $site_name; ?></h1>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if ($site_slogan): ?>
<h2<?php print $site_slogan_attributes; ?>><?php print $site_slogan; ?></h2>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
Can you see the code in third line, <div<?php print $hgroup_attributes; ?>> WHY the php code is inside the first div tag of html? Same thing in later part of code also, as you can see h1 and h2 code. So, what is this convention of combining the html and php in so complicated way? and how should I read that?
Combining HTML and PHP code in Drupal templates is actually a very strong feature. In this case, $hgroup_attributes will probably contain some classes that style the div. Printing it in the template results in something like
<div class="SOME_CLASSES"> ... </div>
If you're further interested in the variable $hgroup_attributes, you can inspect by pasting <?php dpm($hgroup_attributes); ?> in your template file after you've installed the Devel module.
I need help writing a php echo that checks if two cells are the same in two tables.
The cells are:
posts>id and reblogs>newid
I have the following code to start with:
<?php if(!empty($reblogDetails->newid)): ?>
<table><tr><td>
<?php echo $newid;?>
</td><tr></table>
<?php else: ?>
original upload
<?php endif ?>
which I borrowed from another snippet but isn't working.
can anyone help?
Your question is not completely clear, but I am assuming you want to show the table with an anchor tag only if the posts->id is equal to the reblogDetails->newid? If that is the case the code you would want would be more like the below.
<?php if(!empty($reblogDetails->newid) && $posts->id == $reblogDetails->newid): ?>
<table><tr><td>
<?php echo $newid;?>
</td><tr></table>
<?php else: ?>
original upload
<?php endif ?>
That being said I doubt your anchor tag is doing what you want. I would anticipate it creating an anchor that looks something like
12
I'm very newbie regarding PHP, I'm trying to configure my wordpress Loop.
I figured out how to display my customfield in my template, I manually added a title before my taxonomy and custom fields, but I'd like it doesn't show if the taxonomy is empty.
Here is the code:
<div class="customfields">
<h2 class="widgettitle">My Title</h2>
<?php echo do_shortcode('[tax id="agences" before="Agences : " separator=", " after=""]'); ?>
<?php echo do_shortcode('[custom_fields_block]'); ?>
</div>
I would very much appreciate your help!
Thanks a ton,
T.
So code should be
<?php $taxonomy = do_shortcode('[tax id="agences" before="Agences : " separator=", " after=""]'); ?>
<div class="customfields">
<?php if(!empty($taxonomy)) : ?>
<h2 class="widgettitle">My Title</h2>
<?php echo $taxonomy; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php echo do_shortcode('[custom_fields_block]'); ?>
</div>
If you want to show content in HTML only if certain variables contain a value then you can create a simple if statement that uses PHP's isset function to determine whether or not the variables are set, and if true place some HTML on the page. You can read more about isset here.
I wanted to know, is there any way to insert an HTML page into PHP without using the include function? I do not want to use an external html file, I want to write the html coding directly into the php coding.
Thanks for your help!
Interleave it:
<?php
// Some php code.
?>
<html>
<head>
<title>Hello!</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Header</h1>
<?php /* More php code. */ ?>
<p>Blah!</a>
</body>
</html>
<?php /* Even more php. */ ?>
From a best practices point of view, though, avoid doing this - having business logic (PHP) and presentation (HTML) in the same place makes maintaining harder.
EDIT: To address your comment. You can either do it the same way, or use echo:
<?php if (x == 5) { ?>
<p>Blah!</a>
<?php } else {
echo '<p>Bleh</p>';
} ?>
If you need to include snippets of HTML based on conditions, you can interleave code like this. In this case it's convenient to use the alternative syntax for loop controls
<?php if ( $var ): ?>
<html>
<title>YAY</title>
</html>
<?php endif; ?>
so the code is clearer to read and you retain HTML syntax coloring (if your editor supports it).
It is very bad habit to mix HTML and PHP (for more than just output control), but here you go:
$html = "<div>This is HTML</div>"
echo $html;
or Heredoc syntax:
$html = <<<EOF
<div>
<p>
Some longer HTML
</p>
</div>
EOF;
echo $html;
or using alternative syntax for control statements if the output depends on some condition (or if you loop through an array etc.)(which is far better than building HTML with strings):
<?php if($foo): ?>
<div> Some HTML output </div>
<?php else: ?>
<div> Some other HTML </div>
<?php endif; ?>
or just
<?php //PHP here ?>
<div>HTML</div>
<?php //more PHP ?>
<div>more HTML</div>
<?php //even more PHP ?>
