well um i made a layout.......now i added the pages with
<?php include("main.php"); ?>
okay that works now what i want to do is.....
well since i have contents i want to be able to navigate and i want to use less pages etc......
so i just want to know how to make a url go into the include.....
think about IFRAMING i want to do that i want links to be able to stay in the same page other than a pop up or w.e
am i making any sence?
You might want to take a look at this thread in the forums: http://www.phpbuilder.com/board/showthread.php?t=10311250
Or search the forums (and google) for php+dynamic+includes.
Hope that helps.
well thanks a bunch for that i found what i needed in google heres the page
OK, good. I am glad you found it.
But do yourself a favor and don't use the first example:
<?php
$page = $_GET['page']; /* gets the variable $page */
if ($page) {
include($page);
} /* if $page has a value, include it */
else {
include('page1.php');
} /* otherwise, include the default page */
?>
Do use THIS example with the array to check your approved of pages:
<?php
$page = $_GET['page'];
// create array of APPROVED of pages for
// inclusion!!
$pages = array('page1', 'page2', 'page3');
if ($page) {
if(in_array($page,$pages)) {
$page = $page . '.php';
include($page);
}
else {
echo 'Page not found. Return to
<a href="index.php">index</a>';
}
}
else {
include('page1.php');
}
?>That is MUCH safer!!
well.....the first one works for me and the second one the echo shows
why?
Did you change the $pages array to actual values of the pages you want to show users??
If so, post your exact code and we shall take a look.
<?php
$page = $_GET['page'];
// create array of APPROVED of pages for
// inclusion!!
$pages = array('page1', 'page2', 'page3');
if ($page) {
if(in_array($page,$pages)) {
$page = $page . '.php';
include($page);
}
else {
echo 'Page not found. Return to
<a href="index.php">index</a>';
}
}
else {
include('page1.php');
}
?>
same code i only changed the page1.php into main.php and i used this as the linkin thing
<a href="index.php?page=about.php"><b>A</b>bout us</a> \
<a href="index.php?page=tag.php"><b>T</b>agger</a>
http://free.hostultra.com/~Unify/pg/index.php
dats the site im workin on
This is a full url with query string taken from your site after I have clicked the links "link": http://free.hostultra.com/~Unify/pg/index.php?page=links.php
Your $_GET['page'] value is links.php Which means your script is looking to include: links.php.php
You need to reconfigure the links to remove the .php file extensions from the links, and your links will look like the following:
<a href="index.php?page=main"><b>N</b>ews</a> \
<a href="index.php?page=cdkeys"><b>S</b>erials</a> <br>
<a href="index.php?page=porn"><b>P</b>orno</a> \
<a href="index.php?page=bd"><b>B</b>reak Dancing</a><br>
<a href="index.php?page=humor"><b>H</b>umor</a> \
<a href="index.php?page=links"><b>L</b>inks</a><br>
<a href="index.php?page=linkme"><b>L</b>ink Me</a> \
<a href="index.php?page=contact"><b>C</b>ontact</a><br>
<a href="index.php?page=about"><b>A</b>bout us</a> \
<a href="index.php?page=tag"><b>T</b>agger</a>
hmm well i fixed the nav thing.....but it still says page not found 
any other ideas?

Post the latest version of your code (and use the
tags to enclose them to make the code easier to see..)index.php code
<?php
$page = $_GET['page'];
// create array of APPROVED of pages for
// inclusion!!
$pages = array('page1', 'page2', 'page3');
if ($page) {
if(in_array($page,$pages)) {
$page = $page . '.php';
include($page);
}
else {
echo 'Page not found. Return to
<a href="index.php">index</a>';
}
}
else {
include('main.php');
}
?>nav.php code
<a href="index.php?page=main"><b>N</b>ews</a> \
<a href="index.php?page=cdkeys"><b>S</b>erials</a> <br>
<a href="index.php?page=porn"><b>P</b>orno</a> \
<a href="index.php?page=bd"><b>B</b>reak Dancing</a><br>
<a href="index.php?page=humor"><b>H</b>umor</a> \
<a href="index.php?page=links"><b>L</b>inks</a><br>
<a href="index.php?page=linkme"><b>L</b>ink Me</a> \

<a href="index.php?page=about"><b>A</b>bout us</a> \
<a href="index.php?page=tag"><b>T</b>agger</a>
Try this:
<?php
// if the page is set in q-string
if(isset($_GET['page'])){
$page = trim($_GET['page']);
}
// else page is not set
else {
$page = 'main';<?php
// if the page is set in q-string
if(isset($_GET['page'])){
$page = trim($_GET['page']);
}
// else page is not set
else {
$page = 'main';
}
// APPROVED of pages for inclusion
$pages = array('main', 'cdkeys', 'porn', 'bd'); // etc...
// if acceptable request, page in array
if(in_array($page,$pages)) {
$file = $page . '.php';
include($file);
}
else {
echo 'Page not found. Return to <a href="index.php">index</a>';
}
?>
<p>
<a href="index.php?page=main"><strong>N</strong>ews</a>
<a href="index.php?page=cdkeys"><strong>S</strong>erials</a><br />
<a href="index.php?page=porn"><strong>P</strong>orno</a>
<a href="index.php?page=bd"><strong>B</strong>reak Dancing</a><br />

<a href="index.php?page=about"><strong>A</strong>bout us</a>
<a href="index.php?page=tag"><strong>T</strong>agger</a></p>
i guess the nav.php is the same.......although i did get an unexpecting "<" in the code so i fixed it into.....
<?php
// if the page is set in q-string
if(isset($_GET['page'])){
$page = trim($_GET['page']);
}
// else page is not set
else {
$page = 'main';
}
?>
<?php
// if the page is set in q-string
if(isset($_GET['page'])){
$page = trim($_GET['page']);
}
// else page is not set
else {
$page = 'main';
}
// APPROVED of pages for inclusion
$pages = array('main', 'cdkeys', 'porn', 'bd'); // etc...
// if acceptable request, page in array
if(in_array($page,$pages)) {
$file = $page . '.php';
include($file);
}
else {
echo 'Page not found. Return to <a href="index.php">index</a>';
}
?>
as you see there is now 2 seperate php codes...... think we can just connect it?
um also it works but only for these pages
$pages = array('main', 'cdkeys', 'porn', 'bd'); // etcthe other just shows the echo.... and i tried editing the names in the array but i had an invalid T string......
any other ideas =) were close though
please and thanks

Not sure what you mean here by ' unexpecting "<" in the code' ?

Heck yes! That is redundant code. You are doing the same thing twice. Remove the top one.
unify34 wrote:um also it works but only for these pages

Yes, I know that. The comment "// etc" means that YOU have to fill out the array with ALL of the pages that you have links to... Otherwise, the page request will be bad...
unify34 wrote:i tried editing the names in the array but i had an invalid T string
Well, if you don't put the pages in the array, they won't be available to view. The "T-String" error probably means that you didn't enter an opening or closing quote, or there was a comma in the wrong place in your array definition. There cannot be a comma ',' after the LAST item in the array definition. OK? Make sure that each item is entered corectly in the array definiton:
// define an array:
$some_array = array('one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five', 'six');
Try again. You are close, but you have to finish this. You can do it.
thanks for the encouragement
and thanks for the help its workin now
thanks alot man heheh
