global values

[mikawhat]

is there something in php like a value that you only specify once and you can use it at any time without having to pass it via the url every time?

Perhaps you are looking to use sessions, cookies, files and/or a database?

Or create a "config.php" file that holds constants and [man]include/man it in your scripts?

that value will be different for each use so i guess using sesions is the best way.

Actually i'm trying to find the easiest way creating a multilingual website. Usually i just do this:

<?php
lang = $_GET['lang'];
if ($lang == 'en') {
englishg contents
}

if ($lang == 'gr') {
greek contents
}
?>
