News page

[TreeUser]

I want a news page on my site like on Web-Con/.. .

You have one file: nieuws.php (that's the dutch word for news.php).

You see on some websites that when you click on a news link you go to: news.php?id=345345.

How can I make that? and with my own design.

Can someone help me?

Ok. I'll take a stab.

 
//news.php
$WHERE = ' 1=1 ';
if (!IS_NUMERIC($LIMIT )) { $LIMIT = 10; }
if (!IS_NUMERIC($START )) { $START = 0; }

if ($_POST['id']) { $WHERE .= ' AND id = '. $_POST['id']; $LIMIT=1;}

$result = mysql_query('select * from myarticles'. $WHERE. ' sort by id desc limit '. $START . ','.$LIMIT );

Ps: it's 7 am. Syntax check that forker.

I'm not good in PHP but I'd heard that you can include some files in 1 file.
Can you tell me what the script means?

Ps: I'm from Holland

This code assumed you have stored all you articles in a table in a SQL database.

PS: the .nl was a dead giveaway.
