display page , when a link is clicked

ajay600

Consider i have given 3 web pages as input
$doc->loadHTMLFile('http://www.a.net/page_a.htm');
$doc3->loadHTMLFile('http://www.a.net/page_b.htm');
$doc2->loadHTMLFile('http://www.a.net/page_c.htm');

i have the code to remove the contents that are commonly repeated in all the 3 pages.. so now after removing same contents in page 1 , 2 and 3
finally when i want to display the output i did

echo $doc->saveHTML();
echo $doc2->saveHTML();
echo $doc3->saveHTML();

and it displayed all the 3 web pages one below the other

but i want to display the first page alone ( echo $doc->saveHTML() )
and when i click on a link that is present in page 1 , i have to display the second page(echo $doc2->saveHTML()) and when i click on another link available in page 1 i have to display the third page(echo $doc3->saveHTML())

how can it be done using php

You surely just need three PHP pages, each one echoing a different HTML page and a link at the bottom of the first to go to the second and then the third, and so on.

Or you can have a single PHP page and do your links in the form:

phppage.php?show_page=2

and then in the code:


$page = 1;

if(isset($_GET['show_page'])
{
    $page = $_GET['show_page'];
}

switch($page)
{
    case 2: echo $doc2->saveHTML();
        break;
    case 3: echo $doc3->saveHTML();
        break;
    default: echo $doc1->saveHTML();
}

If you want to do this dynamically on the page then instead you need to use AJAX from somewhere like http://script.aculo.us and in this instance you'd do what you did to show all three on the same page but embed each page in a different DIV element with a unique id like page1, page2 and page3. When opening the page you'd have page2 and page3 set to be hidden and then links to hide page1 and then unhide the appropriate other page div. This stuff is really nothing to do with PHP and is all about Javascript controlling CSS.
