I'm following a tutorial for custom coding a wordpress theme.

 

The current part I am on is where you place a cursor over a post title link and a description pops up.

 

Code is

<h2><a href=”<?php the_permalink(); ?>“ title=”<?php the_title(); ?>”> <?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

 

Have I made a mistake? because only the first word of the title pops up instead of the whole title.

Cheers.......

We would need a lot more to work with than just that to figure out what your error is!

 

Check the HTML source and see if the title is only the first word there, or if the whole phrase is there.

 

If its the former, then its a php error, latter, an html/browser error.

In your description you probobally have quotations, view the source of your page and check to see what all is in your a tag.

 

 

Try this, it will probobally add slashes to every quotation though.

<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?=addslashes(the_title(); ?>"> <?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

oops, doubly post .
