isset is not working in laravel

Question

I am sending a variable from controller to a view.

$message = "Thanks for Contacting";

 return redirect('services')->with($message);

HTML

 @isset ($message)
 <a style="color: red;"> {{$message}} </a>
@endisset

But it shows en error, because when the first services is loaded from this route Route::get('/services', function () { return view('services'); });

There's no variable,so it gives en error. Please let me know what I am missing?

Answer 1

You have to use it with @if, Try this:

@if(session()->has('message'))
 <a style="color: red;"> {{ session('message')}} </a>
@endif

and also change your controller like this:

return redirect('services')->with('message', $message);
