Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ECHO

[eluser]Mainboard[/eluser]
i have a little problem with codeigniter, in the view when i try to call some variables i have this problem, this is my code.

My View.

Code:

<? php foreach ($menu_enc as $menue): ?>

Code:

&lt;? '<a class="current">destino;'>' echo $menue->nombre_enc; '</a>' ?&gt;

Code:

<?php endforeach; ?>

i try with add echo at the start on the phrase like this

Code:

&lt;? echo '<a class="current">destino;'>' echo $menue->nombre_enc; '</a>'; ?&gt;

but not works, and i don't know why in the preview doesn't appear the href="'echo $menue->link;

so i what i can do? i know that is a some problem with the syntax but i can't find the correct syntax

Thank you for moving your question over here.

CodeIgniter syntax is php syntax; you need to do things in the same way.

Code:

&lt;?php '<a class="current">destino;'>' echo $menue->nombre_enc; '</a>' ?&gt;

should read:

Code:

&lt;?php echo '<a class="current">' . $menue->nombre_enc . '</a>'; ?&gt;

I don't understand "destino" - is this the href="" part, and does it come from your database?

Grrr..the forum is making a mess of the html code!!

If $menue->destino is your href, then use:

Code:

href="    "

... put

Code:

'.$menue->destino.'

inside the quotes

This should work

Code:

<?php
  foreach ($menu_enc as $menue):
    echo "<a href='' class='current'>destino $menue->nombre_enc </a>"; ?&gt;  
  endforeach;
?&gt;
