Easy Answer, I think...

[Anon]

OK. I have a dataabse, that is a given. Three of the columns in the dataabse are: PREF1, PREF2, PREF3. These equate to topics from a form that a user completed.

Let's say that the PREF1 entry for the active user is REC...In the end, this will equate to REC.HTML which I want to use in a INCLUDE command.

I can't seem to get this to work.

PLEASE HELP.

This should work:

$pref1="rec";
include($pref1.".html");

Thanks for your reply, but unless I am doing something else wrong it is still not working. I am getting a parse error.

One other this, I dont want it to search the database for whats in PREF1, and then add to its contents ".html" so i can use it in a incluude statement.

I thought this would work:

$RESULT=(select * from USERS where USER_NAME=$USER_NAME)

include ("$RESULT".htm)l
