hi.. i've asked questions similar to this before but never really got the answer i was looking for. how do i make urls for my links something like index.php?page=home ...i still don't fully understand how to do this.. i don't need it to use MySQL, just php. thanks in advance.

Something like this:

PHP Code:

<? 

if (isset($page)){ 

if (@fopen("$page.php", "r")){ 

include ("$page.php"); 

} 

else { 

include ("404.php"); 

} 

} 

else { 

include ("main.php"); 

} 

?>

Remeber to make your own 404.php

thanks for the reply! will this work with all the other pages like links, downloads, etc.?

i also have another question.. how would i set up the links to work with this code?

If you use the code in you index.php it should work with all you pages in the root (same as index.php) directory...

I would recomend you using you imagination with this piece of code...

Im going to use the code with my <IFRAME> like this:

Code:

<iframe width="704" height="100%" src="

PHP Code:

<?php

if (isset($page)){ 

if (@fopen("$page.php", "r")){ 

echo ("$page.php"); 

} 

else { 

echo ("404.php"); 

} 

} 

else { 

echo ("news.php"); 

} 

?>

Code:

" name="main" frameborder="0"></iframe>

When I first found the code I didn't use it for a long time, but now that its modyfied to fit my IFRAME, its works nicly...

BTW!!

you may have to use:

PHP Code:

$page = $_GET['page']; 

at the beginning of the script...

You place files like : about.php, scores.php, pictures.php in the root folder and instead of placing a link like

http://www.domain.com/about.php

place a link in thhis way:

http://www.domain.com/index.php?page=about

heres a snippet from a news publishing app i was making

PHP Code:

<?PHP



function test($id){

echo "$id";

}



function test2(){

echo "blah blah blah";

}



switch($_GET['action']) {

    case 'test':

//url looks like page.php?action=test&id=get_whats_after_id

        test($_GET['id']);

        break;



case 'test2':

//url looks like page.php?action=test2

test2();

break;

}

?>

this may not be the best way todo this but it works, oh btw i get error if i just goto page.php dunno how to fix it yet, only been learning for about 2 weeks

hope it helps you

You can also let it grab a file. I never set it up on my site and I can type ..com/boy&file=index and it works for me so I think It should work for you.
