I'm trying to create some basic PHP code which will change the commercial on my front page of my site and have a different commerical for each day of the week (site is www.niksmilitarysales.com )
Now I had a code to do this for days of the week, and heres the days of the week I used.
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<p>
<!-- PHP CODE DAY CODE -->
<?php
$d=gmdate("D",time()+3600); // GMT+1 --> 3600 seconds
if ($d=="Fri")
echo "Enjoy your weekend!";
elseif ($d=="Sat")
echo "Enjoy your Saturday!";
elseif ($d=="Sun")
echo "Enjoy your Sunday!";
elseif ($d=="Mon")
echo "Enjoy your Monday!";
elseif ($d=="Tue")
echo "Enjoy your Tuesday!";
elseif ($d=="Wed")
echo "Enjoy your Wednesday!";
elseif ($d=="Thu")
echo "Enjoy your Thursday!";
?> </p>
<body>

</html>
This code is what I intended up with (I just copied the same video over several different times.
Thank you for your response, but that code COMPLETELY screws up my entire page.
Code:

landing is on the right track.
It's just that when the PHP echo statement was converted to HTML, some of the syntax formatting was not removed.
And using an array to store the different links is the best idea because it is very fast.
The only thing that was left out was the ability to also change the title.
You could use a multidimensional array for this task or two different arrays.
I chose to use two arrays, to keep it simple.
And another thing that landing may be right about is HTML errors.
I don't understand why you have a closing table tag nested amongst the <p> tags.
PHP Code:
<?php // Array of titles. Replace titles accordingly $ads_text = array('Introducing the 2010 Mustang', // Sunday 'Introducing the 2010 Mustang', // M 'Introducing the 2010 Mustang', // T 'Introducing the 2010 Mustang', // W 'Introducing the 2010 Mustang', // Th 'Introducing the 2010 Mustang', // F 'Introducing the 2010 Mustang'); // Saturday
// Array of links. Replace links accordingly $ads_link = array('http://www.youtube.com/v/gYqGSl4K6uE&hl=en&fs=1', // Sunday 'http://www.youtube.com/v/gYqGSl4K6uE&hl=en&fs=1', // M 'http://www.youtube.com/v/gYqGSl4K6uE&hl=en&fs=1', // T 'http://www.youtube.com/v/gYqGSl4K6uE&hl=en&fs=1', // W 'http://www.youtube.com/v/gYqGSl4K6uE&hl=en&fs=1', // Th 'http://www.youtube.com/v/gYqGSl4K6uE&hl=en&fs=1', // F 'http://www.youtube.com/v/gYqGSl4K6uE&hl=en&fs=1'); // Saturday
$d = gmdate("w", time()+3600); // This returns the numeric day of the week. 0 for Sunday and 6 for Saturday
And to be completely honest, I don't understand why you have any closing table tags anywhere in your document because you don't seem to have any tables.
still improving on it.
