if current url == page.html, then

[RodrigoDC]

Question here: I want to make a simple if-then statement in which if current page is page.html, then do something, else, do something different.

I tried

 if $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == page.html {
do something
}
else {
do something different
}

to no avail. The idea is, if I find myself on page.html, then and only then, do whatever; but if the current page is something other than page.html, then perfom something different. Can anyone guide me in the right direction?

Thanks in advanced.

in a normal way, php could not run in a html file.
use php...

and use an IF statement with a " sign.
and PHP_SELF gives you the whole filename with the folder names from the user's root.

so lets use the basename function, to get the filename without the dir. name.

<?
if(basename($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"])=="links.php")
print "This is links.php file...";
else
print "This is not links.php file...";

switch case is better then if you had to make a decision

switch(basename($_SERVER["PHP_SELF")])
{
case "index.php":
print "this is index.php";
break;

case "news.php":
print "this is news.php";
break;
}

and another thing... if you use include, to include a file into another php file, and when you print PHP_SELF, you will get the filename where you included the file, not that file where you use the printing...
