Breadcrumb help!

[Creative210]

Alrighty, I was wondering what exactly I am doing wrong with adding the code to mysite. I have added the php code below so that you may view. Can someone give me a small walkthrough on how I can get this to work? I called the php below breadcrumb.php and added to the site with:

<?php
            require("breadcrumb.php");
?>

The code creates links on your site like this:
Home > News > Headlines

Please help!

Here is more information if needed:

and please don't bump thats very annoying and will most likely make people not respond to your post on purpose

the code uses variable like $PHP_SELF and $HTTP_POST which are not available on some more current installs of php, your maybe one of them

the new notation is $SERVER['PHP_SELF'] and $POST

see if changing those and perhaps some other ALL CAPS variables help fix the problem

I removed the bump and I appreciate the help ednark.

Here is my final coding:

<?php  

// If your server doesn't support $HTTP_HOST variable, uncomment the lower 
// variable, and enter your site name.  Do not remove the trailing slash! 
$site = "http://".$_POST."/"; 
$site = "http://www.emocium.com/"; 


//  If you are on a windows machine you may have to alter this line. 
$str = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; 

ereg("^(.+)/.+\..+$", $str, $part); 
$str = $part[1]; 
$str = substr($str, 1); 

// Define the names you want given to each of the directories 
// e.g. directory test has the label Test which will be visible 
$label =  array("developer"=>"Developer", 
                "store"=>"Store", 
                "donate"=>"Donate", 

if (ereg("/", $str)){ 
$arr = split("/", $str); 
$num = count($arr); 
    for($i=0; $i < $num; ++$i){ 
    echo(" > <a href=\"". $site . $arr[$i] ."/\">".$label[$arr[$i]]."</a>"); 
    $site = $site . $arr[$i] ."/"; 
    } 
}elseif (ereg("[a-zA-Z_]{1,}$",$str)){ 
$arr = $str; 
echo(" > <a href=\"http://".$_POST."/".$arr."/\">".$label[$arr]."</a>"); 
}else{ 
echo(""); 
} 

?> 

Everything works great breadcrumbs url is incorrect:

Emocium Home > Developer

When a user clicks Developer in the breadcrumb the url is:
http://array/developer/

How can I make "array", www.emocium.com ? I appreciate the help everyone.

[ednark]

$site = "http://".$_POST."/";

there is your problem

$POST is the name of an array it contains variables submitted via a form, when it tries to write $POST as a string all it does is tell you there is an array

you should replace it with

$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']

the HTTP_HOST value of the $_SERVER array

Great thanks! Heres the final code.

<?php  

// If your server doesn't support $HTTP_HOST variable, uncomment the lower 
// variable, and enter your site name.  Do not remove the trailing slash! 
$site = "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."/"; 
$site = "http://www.emocium.com/"; 


//  If you are on a windows machine you may have to alter this line. 
$str = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; 

ereg("^(.+)/.+\..+$", $str, $part); 
$str = $part[1]; 
$str = substr($str, 1); 

// Define the names you want given to each of the directories 
// e.g. directory test has the label Test which will be visible 
$label =  array("developer"=>"DEVELOPER", 
                "store"=>"STORE", 
                "donate"=>"DONATE", 
                "links"=>"Links", 
                "search"=>"SEARCH", 
                "support"=>"SUPPORT", 
                "sports"=>"SPORTS"); 

if (ereg("/", $str)){ 
$arr = split("/", $str); 
$num = count($arr); 
    for($i=0; $i < $num; ++$i){ 
    echo(" > <a href=\"". $site . $arr[$i] ."/\">".$label[$arr[$i]]."</a>"); 
    $site = $site . $arr[$i] ."/";
