returning a contatenated string containing an array value properly ( 4 Views )

1. hey,
   
   i have this function, but I cant get it to return the string properly:
   
   

   PHP Code:

   ---

     function addLink($linkData){
//trim any white space off of the link info being entered
$linkData['name'] = trim($linkData['name']);
$linkData['url'] = trim($linkData['url']);
$linkData['linkInfo'] = trim($linkData['linkInfo']);
//escape out any special characters
$linkData['name'] = addslashes($linkData['name']);
$linkData['url'] = addslashes($linkData['url']);
$linkData['linkInfo'] = addslashes($linkData['linkInfo']);


//create temp variables for the query
$n = $linkData['name'];
$u = $linkData['url'];
$l = $linkData['linkInfo'];
$query = "INSERT INTO links (name, url, linkInfo) VALUES ('".$n."', '".$u."', '".$l."')";

$result = mysql_query($query);

if (!$result ){
  return 'Error adding news';
}else{
  $success = 'New link'. $u . ' added successfully.';
  return $success;
  
};

}

   I thought the problem might be that the return statement wont do any operations or somethign so i created a varibale to send back, but it doesnt work..

3. Well, I'm using this script with flash remoting, so what I am getting back is jsut the string, minus the variable...so i am getting back "New link added succssfully". I'll check the script in the browser now..

4. ok here we go. if i change up the script and add add this on the end of it:
   
   
   $l = new Links();
   $ld = array (
   "name"=>"theLink",
   "url"=>"http://wwww.blah.com",
   "linkInfo"=>"a new link"
   );
   $l->addLink($ld);
   
   
   and view this in a browser it works fine...so im guessing something is wrong on teh flash remoting side of it.
