Re: [PHP] Passing arguments to the same script

2002-12-02 Thread Marek Kilimajer 
what abou using action=questions instead of questions=1, then you can 
use array:
$links=array('questions'=Questions link content will go here,
'samples'=Samples link content will go here, 


echo $links[$_GET['action']]

this would be neater.

The only thing that EVER gets displayed is the final else. (Main content

Any ideas?

I'm sure this is easy, but I'm drawing a blank.  I need to have links
   

at
 

the

when
 

it

I have the links like this now:

a href=index.php?samples

How do I determine what is passed?  I need to do an if statement

if ($samples) { do something }

??  But I can't get anything to work.  How do I do it in PHP? (I have no
forms, just links)

This string merely filles the $HTTP_SERVER_VARS[QUERY_STRING] variable.

So you should rather check to see if $HTTP_SERVER_VARS[QUERY_STRING] 
equals 'questions', 'samples', etc...

$_GET['var'] requires that the link look like this:

a href=index.php?page=samples

You could then call $_GET['page'], which would contain the value samples.

To get the desired results with the code you posted, you have to give your
query string parameter(s) a value (as above).  If you don't want to give
samples a value, then examine the query string as a whole:
$_SERVER[QUERY_STRING]

if( $_SERVER[QUERY_STRING] == samples ) ...

What PHP version are you using? Try $HTTP_GET_VARS['sample'] if it's an
older version. Also try index.php?sample=1, so that sample actually
has a value (although the method I gave you worked on IIS).

I think you\'d want to use:
if ( $_SERVER[\'QUERY_STRING\'] == \'samples\')
{
// code
}

otherwise if you use , set your links as:
a href=\index.php?samples=1\
