Hi yall i'm kinda new here
if this topic doesn't belong here, i'm sorry.

Well i'm bussy building an own website in php and i have this very cool index.php
Now i have on the left of the screen my Main Menu with sub links.
Example: About Us - Contacts etc.
and now i saw at a other site that he used thise code
"site.php?t=contacts" to link his contacts links
"site.php?t=aboutus" to link his About Us links
etc etc.
and i searched my ass of the internet to know how it must done but can't find anything
does anyone know how to use this code and can explain me how to use it.

kind regards

Simple stuff really. Though, you may want to rethink using it, since some search engines won't index it. But on the page you want to use, in your example site.php, you'd just use a switch statement to find out what to do.

if(isset($_GET['t'])) {
   switch($_GET['t']) {
      case "aboutus":
         // display About Us stuff
      break;
      case "contacts":
         // display Contacts stuff
      break;
   }
}
else {
   // display default content
}

$t = trim ((!empty($HTTP_POST_VARS['t'])) ? $HTTP_POST_VARS['t'] : $HTTP_GET_VARS['t'] );


switch $t
{

   case "about us":
        // code
        break;

  . .. . .. . . .. 

  default:
       // code


}
