"something.php?id=1" - How?

[HornedDemoN]

Hello. First of all, great community!

Now then. I'm a complete PHP newbie, so please bear with me.

I'm making a games page using PHP on my website and I want to link ot them like this: "games.php?id=1" (the number will represent each game page) and not "game1.php", "game2.php" or "game1.html", "game2.html" etc.

I know this should be possible, because I've seen it on many PHP pages. The problem is I have no clue what the code might be!

Please help a beginner in distress.

Thanks in advance. 🙂

I'm always consulting the PHP manual for things; it's well worth getting familiar with it.

After a whole day of unimaginable PHP torture, I finally managed to achieve something that satisfies me. Thanks for giving me the first "clue". :p
