$_GET['id'] not working..

so at 4:28 it is not working as expected for me..

I tried to figure out what went wrong so i have added and else clause for if statement which is checking if $_GET['id'] is empty and did var_dump in it here is the result

Notice: Undefined index: id in /home/treehouse/workspace/films.php on line 8 NULL

this is the php code from my index.php file

<?php foreach($films as $film){ echo '<li><i class="lens"></i><a href="films.php?id='.$film["film_id"].'">'.$film["title"].'</li>'; 

}

?>

Check your quotes... at first glance it looks like .$film["film_id"] .' ">' .$film["title"] . ' </li>' ; has something screwy going on there

Ok so I have solved this myself

closing a href tag was missing in that line from index.php

However I copied it straight from the video "Working with Results" from PHP & Databases from PDO which has an error which causes problems in next video
