Than why don't you evaluate $_GET['id'] in header.php?
ofcourse the meta tags r in the header is there another option
and what is $_GET['id']
please give me an example
Larg Meta tag problem

meta tags have to be in the head of the html file generated
if you generate the html head (<head>...</head>) inside header.php than you have to generate the meta tags there as well
and what is $_GET['id']
i don't know but you should.
you already use it in your index.php owner...
well can some one help me with the ($_GET['id']) thing
this mayb write an example of how can i use it
and of how can i use it for my problem here
in header.php
switch ($_GET['id']) {
case 'login':
echo '<meta name="description" content="my login page" />';
break;
case 'profile':
echo '<meta name="description" content="my profile page" />';
break;
case 'contact':
echo '<meta name="description" content="you can contact me using the form on this very page" />';
break;
default:
echo '<meta name="description" content="you\\'re visiting a page i don\\'t have a meta tag for" />';
}15 days later
yo guys
i wrote this lil scripty
<?php
$page = $_GET[id];
function meta($id)
{
switch ($id) {
case 'home':
echo '<title> test12 </title>';
break;
default:
echo '<title> test1 </title>';
}
}
print $meta;
?>
and it dosnt seem to workt)
i call a page this way: index.php?id=home
and anyway
this way unless i can use the wildcard "*" (which i think i can
is too long and not good enough because some pages i call in the old way of just naming the php file
can`t i put a variable in the main pages and it will read it in the header and put in the according meta tags and title
can some 1 write m a example like this
(sry i am pro at Visual Basic Pascal & Assembler but php is not my strong side)

$meta is a variable, meta() is a function. It's a good idea to remember the difference.
<?php
$page = $_GET[id];
function meta($id)
{
switch ($id) {
case 'home':
echo '<title> test12 </title>';
break;
default:
echo '<title> test1 </title>';
}
}
meta();
?>
well i guess it fixed some of it
but now it gives m error
Warning: Missing argument 1 for meta() in /home/.calpurnia/vadimku/_website/header.php on line 104
line 104 contains
function meta($id)
and it seem to show default only

meta($page);instead of
meta();Recognising problems like this yourself and fixing them will become a lot easier once you get a bit more programming experience behind you. Meantime, I'll just direct you to http://www.php.net/functions.

and ofcourse i have a huge load of pages i cant make a case for every one of themt work (or am i wrong about this how can i use wildcard here )
and like i understand whiledcard '*' dosn
can`t i do this some other waylike put a variable in the main pages and it will read it in the header and put in the according meta tags and title

(You can read a directory, load all its filenames into an array, and then see if the requested page is in the array).
Can't help with example code. I don't know what your '*' wildcard is supposed to do.
I didn't know there were still professional Assembler programmers out there. How quaint.

yea i will think of thisand find a way
but the problem is still there
cause most of my site isnt called the $_GET[id]t put in the custom title in there and it uses the defult 1
it is called the normal way
so it means i can
what should i do
