Hi I need to create a button to link to a different TLD with the same URI

For example

http://website.com/page1

Will have a button that links to

http://website.co.uk/page1

I am thinking something like

<a href="<?php echo('http://website.co.uk'.$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]); ?>">LINK HERE</a>

however this clearly isn't working ?

Any thoughts?

Thanks

When I test this I end up with the following

linking to

https://website.com/page1/%3C?php%20echo(%27http://website.co.uk%27.$_SERVER[

This works perfectly fine in my test. Please describe what your actual issue is with it. – misorude Sep 05 '18 at 14:49
But how are `/page1` and `/page2` even _“the same URI”_ to begin with? – misorude Sep 05 '18 at 14:50
In your expected link you changed the domain name and the page, not the TLD. – AymDev Sep 05 '18 at 14:50

"isn't working" doesn't tell us much. What is the expected result? What is the actual result? – Patrick Q Sep 05 '18 at 14:54
please see my screen shot & added info above now, thank you Patrick – Henry Aspden Sep 05 '18 at 14:56
Looks to me like you don't actually have PHP running. – Patrick Q Sep 05 '18 at 14:57

it's on a wordpress site so I definatly have PHP there. Is there a non PHP way of doing this? – Henry Aspden Sep 05 '18 at 14:59
sorry PHP isn't executable by default in wordpress posts & pages... – Henry Aspden Sep 05 '18 at 15:02
you wrote this php code into a WP HTML editor ? It has been saved as text. – AymDev Sep 05 '18 at 15:04
