i dont understand the configs

looking at it

[BIGGEST PHP COMPLICATION OF THE DECADE]

with adding the code you said

it says;

Warning: main(.html): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/foxyones/public_html/index.php on line 187

Warning: main(): Failed opening '.html' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/foxyones/public_html/index.php on line 187

now when i click a link, it actually takes me to a different page

but its an error page

still, we're making progress

my host's IonCube went down a day ago...

i have no idea what it is, but i think it has something to do with php protection

could that in any way effect my pages?

here's the index.php code in the desired content area:


<?php
if ($id == "") {
  include "news.html";
}
else {
  include "$id.html";
}
?>


anything wrong in that?

[BIGGEST PHP COMPLICATION OF THE DECADE]

it worked well like two days ago

i rather have those pages inside the content area, though

my site's coded into php / anyway, whenever I click a link, nothing happens, except the index.php refreshes with the news.html..
