How to input a large block of html code with passed variables?
Hi all
I have a large block of html code that is part of the paypal add to cart button.
I need to add this code a number of times with different variables for each one.
I want to have this block of html in a separate function that I can then call and pass in the variables in.
PHP
[code]
<?php
function item($name, $number){
echo ”
<div class=’product’>
<h2>Product Name</h2>
<form target=’paypal’ action=’https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr’ method=’post’>
<input type=’hidden’ name=’cmd’ value=’_cart”>
<input type=’hidden’ name=’business’ value=’emailAddress’>
<input type=’hidden’ name=’lc’ value=’GB’>
<input type=’hidden’ name=’item_name’ value='”.$name.”‘>
<input type=’hidden’ name=’item_number’ value='”.$number.”‘>
<input type=’hidden’ name=’button_subtype’ value=’products’>
<input type=’hidden’ name=’no_note’ value=’0′>
<input type=’hidden’ name=’cn’ value=’Add special instructions to the seller’>
<input type=’hidden’ name=’no_shipping’ value=’2′>
<input type=’hidden’ name=’add’ value=’1′>
<input type=’hidden’ name=’bn’ value=’PP-ShopCartBF:btn_cart_LG.gif:NonHosted’>
<table>
<tr><td><input type=’hidden’ name=’on0′ value=’Number of Users’>Number of Users</td></tr><tr><td><select name=’os0′>

</div>
}
”
?>
HTML
[code]
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN”

<?php
require_once(“functions.php”);

How can I output this html code from a function with passed in variables ?
