Php if switch

[Egg_Shell]

I have been trying to create a simple switch on my index.php page - so that i can control the flow of the main page content ....

<?php
//switching main content

if($dest == "search")
{
include("/services_include.php");
}
else
{
include("/main_hp.php");
}
?>

..the url to action this is ..<a href="/index.php?dest=search"><b>services</b></a>

I am not getting any errors - but it just wont work! - can anyone shed some light on this 4 me?😕

I once had a similar problem an found that doing somthing like this works:

if ($dest == "search")
{
include ("../path/to/file");
}
else
{
include ("../path/to/other/file");
}

notice the ".." before the path

There may be other better ways of doing it ..please let me know
