haha ok ermmm maybe ill talk you through it and post the code

 

ok so on my main page i have this

 

<? $page = $_GET['page'];
                    if (ereg('[A-Za-z0-9]',$page) ) {
                        if (file_exists('include/'.$page.'.php')) {
                            include('include/'.$page.'.php');
                        } else {
                            include('include/main.php');
                        }
                   } else {
                            include('include/main.php');
                    }?>

 

so everything in my include folder gets placed here....

 

i have my profile.php which is the users profile ok   right

 

to look at your profile you go by the link... www.mywebsite.com/members/yourname    this is done by this

<a href="<?php echo get_username($_SESSION['user_id']);?>">profile</a>

 

but for my to get the file to appear on the include file scirpt (the top 1) you have to have this in the url 

<a href=\"index.php?page=??(what ever page it is so profile ???\">

  so how can i do it lol that make betetr sence?

<a href="http://www.mywebsite.com/members/yourname/<?php echo get_username($_SESSION['user_id']); ?>">profile</a>

[runnerjp]

dezkit sorry it has to be something likeee <a href="<?php index.php?page= echo get_username($_SESSION['user_id']);?>">profile</a>

[dezkit]

 

<a href="<?php echo 'index.php?page='; echo get_username($_SESSION['user_id']);?> ">profile</a>

 

or

 

<a href="
<?php 
echo 'index.php?page='; 
echo get_username($_SESSION['user_id']);
?> 
">profile</a>
