Code not work : how to disable the link when the cursor on

May I know what's the problem with this code? I'd try to run it in my index.php in on of joomla module, but the site output is just white.

echo ' < a style="cursor: pointer;" >onclick="location.href='http://example.com/index.php' ">Admin < /a>';

I'd like to make the link for the example.com/index.php not appear / disabled when I put the cursor on the link. I'd try run the code above at the Try It! on w3school.com and it works perfectly, but if I put the code in my file in joomla module, it's not work!

Hope somebody could help me.. thanks in advance

Solution

You have an error in your code

echo ' < a style="cursor: pointer;" >onclick="location.href='http://example.com/index.php' ">Admin < /a>';

The Error

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'http' (T_STRING), expecting ',' or ';' in index.php on line 7

indentation of element < a> is not correct and should be <a> also applies with the closing tag </a>
you have an excess > character near the style="cursor: pointer;"
Use window.location.href instead of location.href because you are trying to return the url of the current page.
Learn to escape characters as much as possible e.g \"

The correct php code.

echo "<a style='cursor: pointer;' onclick='window.location.href=\"http://example.com/index.php\"'>Admin</a>";
