ok ive made an admin panel with a links when you click a link it adds a variable like so: page="editcontent" this go to admin_page.php:

<?php

$pagetoload = $_REQUEST['page'];

if($pagetoload == "newcontent")
{
$page = include"admin_content_editor.php";
}
elseif($pagetoload == "contentlist")
{
$page = include"admin_content_list.php";
}
elseif($pagetoload == "menulist")
{
$page = include"admin_menu_list.php";
}
elseif($pagetoload == "menuedit")
{
$page = include"admin_menu_edit.php";
}

echo $page;
?>

this is what tell server which page to display

but when it brings the page back to the browser i get a misterious number one sitting at the bottom of my tables?
see here:

Try using a switch statement.

<?php
$pagetoload = $_REQUEST['page']; 
switch ($pagetoload) {
case "newcontent":
    include"admin_content_editor.php";
    break;
case "contentlist":
    include"admin_content_list.php";
    break;
case "menulist":
    include"admin_menu_list.php";
    break;
case "menuedit":
    include"admin_menu_edit.php";
    break;
?>

Using a switch statement, while perhaps useful for rewriting the code here, is not why you are seeing the 1.

Read up on what the [man]include[/man] function does. Specifically what it returns, such as when opening a file is successful. Then take a look at your echo statement. You'll soon see why there's a 1 there.
