You can access the GETs (the things you enter in the URL) with $_GET. Or if you have register_globals = On there are variables named after the ones in the URL..

ex:
$_GET['page'] // == "news"

[ayro]

i didnt get that...

im currently using this code to get the news into the index

<? 
if (isset($_GET["section"])) {
   include("{$_GET["section"]}.php");

}
?>

so when i enter index.php?section=news the news come
but now i want to be able to call only 1 news post

hmm.. You don't know what to do with the values you get or you can't get them?

[ayro]

i can get them but i want more

ex: index.php?section=news&id=1

so i get the first news post with id = 1

get what i mean?

Yeah, you have news stored in a database?

[ayro]

yes... and now i want to be able to call up 1 news post with index.php?section=news&id=1

YOu know how to get data from a database? I hope so =)
then use the SQL query..

"SELECT * FROM news WHERE id='" . $_GET['id'] . "'";
