Little help with a small piece of php

    I've got the script working just fine I'm just not that great at php yet. What I need to do is simply have the script open up links in a new window when it calls it from the database. It works fine now but I mess something up when I simply add target="_blank" to the link. I get a sytax error that I'm sure is because I just need to add a stupid back slash or something.

    Heres the piece of code:
    
$topics_html = '';
while($topic = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
    $topics_html .= "<a href=\"{$path}viewtopic.php?t={$topic['topic_id']}\">{$topic['topic_title']}</a><br /><br />";
}
mysql_close($conid);

echo $topics_html;
?> 

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

    Try using:

    target= '_blank' href

    and I don't think you will need to backslash the ' but you might. Try it without first.
