VistasAdding HTML codes inside PHP
I'm trying to add a view button to my table but I'm getting a syntax error, unexpected href. Seems like I'm wrong with the formatting. Still trying to learn PHP but is it possible to add href to the table?
Here's my code:
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result))
{
$output .= '
<tr>
<td>'.$row["name"].'</td>
<td>'.$row["temperature"].'</td>
<td>'.$row["phoneno"].'</td>
<td> '<a href='read.php?id='. $row['id'] .'' title='View Record' data-toggle='tooltip'><i class='fa fa-eye' style='font-size:30px; color: black;''></i></a>';' </td>
</tr>
';
}
echo $output;
And here's the image for the color coding that seems wrong.

It is because you're using single quotes to delimit your strings while using single quotes in the strings to denote values.
This -
<td> '<a href='read.php?id='. $row['id'] .'' title='View Record' data-toggle='tooltip'><i class='fa fa-eye' style='font-size:30px; color: black;''></i></a>';' </td>
Should be this -
<td><a href="read.php?id='. $row['id'] .'" title="View Record" data-toggle="tooltip"><i class="fa fa-eye" style="font-size:30px; color: black;"></i></a></td>';

Just mismatched quotes.
There're many ways to mix PHP and HTML and you've chosen a hard syntax. Please compare with e.g.:
<?php foreach($foo as $row) { ?>
<tr>
<td><?= $row["name"] ?></td>
<td><?= $row["temperature"] ?></td>
<td><?= $row["phoneno"] ?></td>
<td>
<a href='read.php?id=<?= $row['id'] ?>' title='View Record' data-toggle='tooltip'><i class='fa fa-eye' style='font-size:30px; color: black;'></i></a>
</td>
</tr>
<?php }
BTW, your are injecting raw text into HTML, beware that it can break your markup any time.

Your quotes are all over the place. You open a string variable with single quotes so every time you use single quotes unescaped in the string you just created will be interrupted.
It should be like this: <a href="read.php?id='.$row['id'].'" ... >
