Link to site not working ??

Posted by Chris_Isaac (Chris Isaac), 22 July 2003
Hi

The following code should produce a button which redirects the user to another website.  $row[website] does contain the right URL.  But when its pressed it comes up with "Page cannot be displayed because the address is incorrect".  But if you highlight the URL and hit return it loads it ok.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Chris

Code:
$website = ($row[website]) ? "<form action=$row[website] method=post>".
"<input name=who type=hidden value=".$row[hid].">".
"<input type=submit value=\"Go to Website\"></form><br>" : "";

Highlighting the address and linking to it will be using the get rather than the post method - are you sure that the URL you're looking to refer to accepts "POST"s?
