include script help

[kahran]

I have a small include script to grab "content" from text files.

Here's my index.php

<?php
if($HTTP_GET_VARS['page'] == '$') {
    include('$.txt');
}
elseif(include('index.txt'));
?>

So basically if I just go to www.mysite.com it will bring up everything for the index page.

But if I have a text file name content.txt and try to bring it up as http://www.mysite.com/index.php?page=content it wont work.

What am I doing wrong?

i Know what your trying to do.. But dont use if/else

use switch much quicker

switch($_GET['page'])
{
case page1:
include("page1.php"):
break;
//continue for all other pages
default:
include("default.php");
break;
}

reading that code, it doesn't seem to follow the logic of what I am trying to do. Once again, if I just go to the root of my site it will load index.php with all the content code it needs. but if I specify index.php?page=content, it will grab from the context.txt

Also, following the logic of your code, I would have to make an entry for every single page in that code... that's just silly.
