I am trying to create my own news system and to start with I'm using
static news pages until I get the db working properly.
I'm using the following code:
<?php
if(!isset($_GET['id']))
{ $article="$id.php"
if (file_exists($article)) { include $article; }
else { echo "The article you've requested does not exist!"; }
}
else { echo "You did not select an article"; }
?>
I am testing using the following links...
www.myurl.co.uk/index.php
www.myurl.co.uk/index.php?id=1
www.myurl.co.uk/index.php?id=2
When I try the first one, I'd expect it to say you did not select an
article, but it says
Notice: Undefined variable: id in
/home/5217/tomchubb/public_html/index.php on line 15
The article you've requested does not exist
When I try the third link, I would expect it to say The article
you've requested does not exist! but it says:
Parse error: parse error in /home/5217/tomchubb/public_html/index.php on line 16
Lines 15 & 16 are:
if (file_exists($article)) { include $article; }
else { echo "The article you've requested does not exist!"; }
I don't understand why this isn't working and I've tried looking into
this for 2 hours!
Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong please?
Thanks,
Tom
