[RESOLVED] custom include?

[include_me]

Hi,

Im trying to write a bit of php with the following code:

<?php
include 'http://www.domain.com/table.php?var1=10&var2=2&var3=#';
?>

this bit of code is on every page and what I would like it to do is change var3= to the id of the record that the page is showing so for eg if the current page is page.php?pageid=222 then var3= would be var3=222 etc.. for every page.

Ive tried using $_GET[pageid] to get the pageid, put it into a variable and stick it on the end but the include doesnt like this and just shows the variable name that I created.. Is there a way of me doing this? i didnt think of this before I created the site..

PLEAAASSEEE!!! im desperate...

Thanks,
Chris

$var3 = 1;  // make this whatever default value you want to use
if(!empty($_GET['page_id']))
{
   $var3 = (int) $_GET['pageid']; // use (int) to force an integer value
}
include 'http://www.domain.com/table.php?var1=10&var2=2&var3=' . $var3;

that's because it would need to be $_GET['pageid'] (note the single quotes)

But it's generally not a good idea to give people the ability to decide which page gets included.

edit: I guess if you're just giving them the ability to send a new id variable to a table.php script, then that isn't the same as saying something like

include($_GET['pageurl']);
