include file (filename in variable)

[magician]

Hello

I've got those files on my serv (for example)
001.html
002.html
main.html
index.php

#---------index.php content----------#

$action=getenv(query_string);
if ($action == '"') { include ("main.html"); }
else { include ($action.".html"); }

#---------index.php content end----------#

After I run index.php?001 there's an error in line 3.
How to deal with?

Thanks

Hi,
your problem is this. The php parser, even with if(), will includes both, "main.html" and $action.".html".

Change your code in:

 
if ($action == '"') $action="main";

include ($action.".html"); 

This will works, I think.

bye bye

But see this thread.

$action=getenv(query_string);
if ($action == '"') { include ("main.html"); }
else { include ($action.".html"); } 

1. the test $action=='"' fails because it's not an empty string - you wrote ' " ' ...

2. php will NOT try to include both...

3. weedpacket is right - read the thread

4. what does this error you get look like?

   • perhaps you receive something like:
     'main(): Failed opening '001.html' for inclusion (include_path='.: ...
     in that case check you include-settings in php.ini

You're right with above error message.

I'll read the tread, thanks for now.

you can set the include-path in php.ini
or in your program like this:

// set additional path before inclusion:
$otherpath ="/web/includes";
$phppath   = ini_get("include_path");
// add more paths separated by ':'
$phppath  .=":".$otherpath;
ini_set("include_path",$phppath);

Okay.

I've read the topic and everything seem to be ok.

DonChris: I include file from my root cat and it works even without paths in php.ini, i tried to include file using http://mysite.com/included_file.php and it works too.

thanx
