hyperlinks in conditional tags

    I’ve created conditional tags for my sidebar so that it only displays certain information for certain pages. That works fine. So, if I follow a:

    if (is_page('contact')) {

    with

    echo "Click Me";

    It displays fine. But if instead follow with:

    echo "<a href="???">Click Me</a>";

    I break my site. What am I doing wrong?

    for one thing, quote marks have to be escaped:

    echo "<a href=\"???\">Click Me</a>";

    Only when inside similar quote marks. The way I prefer to do it:
    echo '<a href="???">Click Me</a>';

    I would have suggested that but figured it was easier to just explain why what he was using wasnt working, in the event he uses a similar method again. Rather than suggesting a “new” way.

    Either one works, Vendetta, just remember that nested quotes (“” blah “”) need to be escaped, if you opt for that method.

    Tamishka: your issue is totally different from the OP’s – please start your own thread on it. Thanks.
