Re: Converting html to pdf

considering you didn't even escape any of the quotes in your thing, no wonder it's not working.

escape your quotes (using the backslash ("\")), then come with back with a real question :/

you also have invalid HTML, because you have triple quotes for some parameters (for example, I saw a bunch of things like: parameter=""value". this is invalid syntax)

Hi
Thanks for the reply.
I have remove the " where is was double.
after that also the same problem.
Is there any other way to do the same?

Re: Converting html to pdf

if you still haven't escaped your quotes, you're going to have the same problem.

PHP Code:

<?php echo 'this is a simple string'; echo 'You can also have embedded newlines in strings this way as it is okay to do'; // Outputs: Arnold once said: "I'll be back" echo 'Arnold once said: "I\'ll be back"'; // Outputs: You deleted C:\*.*? echo 'You deleted C:\\*.*?'; // Outputs: You deleted C:\*.*? echo 'You deleted C:\*.*?'; // Outputs: This will not expand: \n a newline echo 'This will not expand: \n a newline'; // Outputs: Variables do not $expand $either echo 'Variables do not $expand $either'; ?>
