linking issues

Having problems with a site that is built in php and mysql.

The goal it for a page to list the name, city and phone of a service from a state, with no hyperlinks and this is currently setup and working correctly. Then I wanted to add a bonus if someone signs up they would have a featured area that would be hyperlinked from the list of names and would leave the other with no hyperlink.

What I did was add another field which was called ‘bonus’ to the mysql table and it creates a ‘Y’ in the column to acknowledge this feature. I added the dynamic field for linkage and that works correctly . It hyperlinks to the featured items like address and website.

Now comes the part that is stumping me:
I want to use the standard name on the page and create a hyperlink to the featured items and would leave all of the other names alone (unhyperlinked). I tried using the “show if� statement but was only able to hyper link all of the names and not just the one that I needed. I did some research in PHP and found an idea on how to do it with the “if� and “else� statement but can’t seem to make it work.

I would really love some input on how to make this function properly.

Thanks in advance for your time.

Andrew

Try pasting the code you have. It'll make the job easier.
