Hi All,

This is probably something really simple, however I am quite new to PHP, and havent done any HTML in years.

I need to get a PHP variable filled with an array of figures into Google Charts. My code for this so far is:

<img src="http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?
&chs=340x175
&chd=t:<?=$filedetail[1]?>
&cht=lc
&chtt=Test
">

However, Google reports an error, as it stops at the ?=$filedetail[1] for some reason. It doesnt seem that reading the variable is the problem, more that the API simply cant read past the start of the PHP tags.

Thanks,

Rob A.
