every time I wash my dh's pants I fold and let them hang dry on a line and they are still wet a good day and half later and start to smell. what am I doing wrong? won't they crease if I put them in the dryer?

That usually works for my husband's pants. Maybe the material is a heavier material than normal and just needs more time.

Hang them from the bottom by separating the legs and clipping each one separately to the line so that you have only two layers of fabric in any one spot. The way you're doing it. you have four layers of fabric on top of each other on one side and another two right next to them on the other side.
what kind of material are the pants? So long as you take them out of the dryer as soon as they're dry or just a drop before they're fully dry, don't overdry them or dry on a hot setting, or leave them crumpled in the dryer or basket, they will be less wrinkled when machine-dried than when air-dried. The tradeoff is that machine-drying causes more wear and tear and fading, and generates a lot of static.
Bottom line: feel free to machine dry but keep an eye on it, remove as soon as the machine stops, and hang or fold immediately.
