How to display a <div> only on a specific page?

harpoharpomarx

Hi all, newbie PHP coder here and I'm stuck...

I'm building a website in Drupal, and am trying to hide a <div> only on a specific path/page. I've used a bit of PHP to hide the <div> (called "right") on the front page with no problem, here's the code:

<?php if ( ! $is_front ) : ?>
<div id="right"><?php print $content; ?></div>
<?php endif; ?>

However, I don't want to hide the <div> on the front page, instead I want to hide the <div> on another specific path/page... in this case the path/page would be www.****.com/ellen/home

Any ideas? I know the solution must be embarrassingly simple, but I've been stabbing in the dark all day on Drupal.org and Google with no luck. 😃

Thank you!

Thanks for the fast reply... I'm really new to this, any chance you could post an example of the code as I'm having a lot of difficulty getting the syntax correct? Thanks!

I suggest you have it echo the server superglobal into a comment on the page then look at the source and it should be pretty straightforward. ie.

echo "<!--\n".print_r( $_SERVER, true )."\n-->\n";

You'll find that a few fields relate to the current script run - the script name, path, requested url, etc. One of these you can use in a comparison match:

if ( $_SERVER['SELECTED_FIELD'] == 'string/for/page' ) { "print div" }

(or if != )
