How do you go back to the html page you came in from from inside a php
script?

ehh, how do you mean? If you have an html page that includes php
(and your server is configured to parse .html as php, then:

<html>
<head><title>.. .</title></head>
<body>
<?php echo "Hello World!"; ?>
</body>
</html

if you mean executing a php script, and then redirecting, then its
something like this:

** php script*
if (TRUE == $jump) {
// yes yes, lets be complient
header("Locatio n: http://www.somewhere.c om/page.html");
}

** html page **
<html>
<head><title>.. .</title>/head>
<body>
<h1>Hello world</h1>
<p>you were redirected from php</p>
</body>
</html>

yes. this is what I mean. What about the converse? Calling a php
script from within html? I have an html static page that uses links to
a 3rd party shopping cart.
I want to use a shopping cart I wrote myself using php/mysql but what
do i replace the links with? I tried replacing them with a link to my
php cart script
(e.g., <a href="http://www.mydomain.co m/myCart.php</a>)

This works and now I can use the header() function from within the
myCart.php script to get back. I guess my question is do I have to use
the <a href=tag to invoke the script on the server side? or a better
questions is can I just do this without problems?

You need to place something to click between the <a href...and </a>.

myCart.php script to get back. I guess my question is do I have to use
the <a href=tag to invoke the script on the server side? or a better

You mean automatically invoke the shopping cart when you load an html
page? Well, you can mix php and html if you wish, just call your html
page <name>.php, and it will be processed as php, for instance like this:

foo.php:

<html>
<head><title>Th is is a sample</title></head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome</h1>
<?php
if ($_GET["foo"] = "something" )
echo "Excellent, dude!";
?>
<p>This is an html-page paragraph</p>
</body>
</html>

Alternatively, use JavaScript in the page to, eg. fire up a popup window
(do a search for "javascript " and "popup"), and that can source the
cart. You can also do something with frames, etc. It will really very
much depend on what you want to achieve.

no. I just wanted to know if using the <atag is the only way to
provide a link to the the cart (myCart.php). It's a silly question now
that I think about it.

Well, since <ais not PHP code, might I recommend you try asking in
alt.html?

Well, no ;-) But that's well outside the scope of php.

And since when is this an appropriate group for HTML? It's not. This
is a PHP group - hence the "php" in it's name.

Just trying to direct you to the appropriate place.
