Very simple PHP Background change?

[Transition]

Hi there,

I’m trying to write a very simple script that does the following. I need the script to look at the current page loaded and change the background color of a cell. For example…

If the current page loaded is games.php, then my cell background color will be black. And if the current page loaded is not games.php, then do nothing.

Any help w/ this is greatly appreciated,

well... one way you could do it...

$query = $QUERY_STRING;

if($query == 'games') {
$color = 'black';
} else {
$color = 'white';
}

echo "<table border='2' cellpadding='2' cellspacing='2' width='50%'><tr bgcolor='$color'><td>SOmething</td></tr></table>";

echo "<a href='index.php?games'>Games</a>";
echo "<br><a href='index.php?something'>Something</a><br>";
echo "<a href='index.php?test'>Test</a><br>";

well uh, Just look and uh... stuff, and self explanatory code... (shrugs)

Or...

if(substr(strrchr($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'], "/"),1) == "games.php") {
   echo "<td bgcolor=\"#000000\">";
}

nah this is the simplest way

$pages = array 
(
    'games.php' => '#000000';
);

if(isset($pages[$PHP_SELF])) {
    $bgcolor = $pages[$PHP_SELF];
}//end if

now to add more he just adds them to the array.
