problems echo variable, it show as "T" instead of the varible

[perhapscwk]

I have

$ad_url = "https://".$_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]."/category.php?viewadv=".$viewadv;

echo $ad_url;

It always show as
"http://my domainname..../category.php?vi ewadvT"

Why?

If I echo $viewadv, it fine, i can see the number (5), but how come if i echo $ad_url,
then it will display as T instead of "=5"

I can not reproduce your error. Basically when I do this:

$viewadv = 5;
$ad_url = "https://".$_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]."/category.php?viewadv=".$viewadv;
echo $ad_url;

I get https://localhost/category.php?viewadv=5 as it probably should be. Can you give us some more code. Like where/how do you assign value 5 to your $viewadv.

I Just find that it works fine except if I send it as a email message.

Not sure if it affected by the email header.


I use email header as below.

Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1

Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

Hmmm... I always use phpMailer and mostly recommended on this forum is Swift Mailer. Easy to use.
