At least I hope it is simple...
I am trying to get an HTML menu link to set a variable's value. For
example, when a user clicks the "Home" button on my page it would
cause
$page = "home"; or clicking the "About Us" button will set
$page="about_us";
etc.
I think this should be fairly simple but being completely new to php
I just
cannot seem to get it right.
Any help would be greatly appreciate.
Hi Christopher,
Here's a code sample of something that I use to change the page
without reloading the entire thing... It is in the proces of
developing into somewhat of a template system where the presentation
info (The look of the site) is included in one file, and then when a
link is clicked it loads in the actual content for that page.
Let me know if you have any questions about it.
<?PHP
include("php.ini.php");
include("dbconnect.php");
include("defaults.php");
include("doctype.txt");
include("main.css");
$link = dbconnect($server, $username, $password, $database);
if(!isset($data)) {
$data = explode("/", $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
}
// Used for grabbing which page to bring in to include
$url = basename($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
$sql = "SELECT * from raosetc_purl.schreur where
url='{$data[1]}' AND subscribed='0';";
$row[] = mysql_query($sql) or die("Database Error:
" .mysql_error());
$result = $row[0];
//Navigation must be below call to $data for it to function properly
include("nav.php");
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
echo <<<HTML
<body>
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="text">
<h1 class="white">{$row['FName']}! It's great to see
you!</h1>
