add double quotation sign in echo.. Help...

[kirtan_thakkar]

echo ("<a href=foldername/".$file.">".$file."</a>"."<br>");

and there

$file = readdir($handle);

in that case $file is a folder name with space.. So I have to put double quotation after href=. But it doesnt printing that double quotation. The link I am getting is only the folder name's first thing before space. So the link Generating is wrong...

Please help me..

Hi, there are several methods of printing double quotes, two of them are:

1) Using single quotes:
echo '<a href="http://www.example.com">Example</a>';

2) Escaping in double quotes:
echo "<a href=\"http://www.example.com\">Example</a>";

I'd recommend sticking to single quotes since its more readable and has better micro performance because it doesn't interpolate variables as double quotes do, that is -

$x = 42;
echo "My value: $x"; // prints: My value: 42
echo 'My value: $x'; // prints: My value: $x

echo ('<a href="quotations/$file">'.$file.'</a><br>');

I have tried this but getting this link
"foldername/$file"

True because single quote don't interpolate variables, you'll have to use the concat operator (dot) :

echo '<a href="quotations/"' . $file . '>' . $file . '</a><br />';

Now not getting the first name(before space)
Getting this only..
"quotations/"

right my mistake it should be
echo '<a href="quotations/' . $file . '">' . $file . '</a><br />';

I misplaced the second double quote.
