Hi Prakhar,

The issue is that you are trying to concatenate HTML text with PHP text.

<a href="shirt.php?id=".$product_id." class="btn btn-lg btn-info btn-block">

Needs to just echo the string since you can not concatenate HTML text with PHP text

<a href="shirt.php?id=<?php echo $product_id; ?>" class="btn btn-lg btn-info btn-block">

Robert
