using PHP variables in html tag

I get a variable from PHP code which is a webpage link, and want to use that in html tag. For example:

<?php 
  $link;

  ...
  $link = $client->api();
?>
 <a href= "<?php $link ?>" > LINK </a>

How can I get the link value in html tag? Thank you!

if you have html file then fist change the extention .php in place of .html

eg. you have test.html then change that to test.php

after that you use the same code as 

<?php $link='http://stackoverflow.com' ?>

<a href= "<?php echo $link; ?>" > LINK </a>

Hope this will help you

You must echo the value ... also, don't forget to escape it:

<a href="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($link, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'); ?>">LINK</a>

Since PHP 5.4 it's also safe to use short open tags:

<a href="<?= htmlspecialchars($link, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'); ?>">LINK</a>

<a href= "<?php echo $link; ?>" > LINK </a>

or

<?php

echo '<a href= "'.$link.'"> LINK </a>';

Try this :

<a href= "<?php echo $link; ?>" > LINK </a>

echo it echo $link;

Alternatively, short hand would be:

<a href= "<?= $link; ?>" > LINK </a>
