yes this how u do it easly

basically the bar bones to access a VARIBLE from url


<html>

<head>
  <title>in URL variables</title>
</head>

<body>

<?php

echo $ID;




?>

</body>

</html>

then just access ur page by a link like thise

link to the page for example

www.yahoo.com/link.php?ID=30

umm but a easy way to do it would be

to make an array to hold different links

links[20];
links[1]= "www.yahoo.com";
blah blah blah

basically the ID number will be the number of array u load!

so ID = 1

u take array[1] link which is yahoo

thats all i can do right now im working on my forum

if u want to have alot of different links i suggest a data base

I can help you with database if u want 🙂

this wont help 'em too much if register_globals is off..
it'll work fine if it's on, but it shouldnt be anyways.. besides you should always code as if it isnt.

add $ID = $_GET['ID'];

before echo $ID;

i.e.
Say the link is... [url]http://.../page.php?ID=21[/url]

<?
$ID = $_GET['ID'];
echo $ID;

?>

OR

<?

echo $_GET['ID'];

?>
