Holding a whole page in a variable?

[s_ainley87]

Hello,

 

What I am wanting to is access page data depending on what link has been pressed, so for example if the link 'link1' was hit then I would the page to load that has 'link1' details in it, and if 'link2' is pressed I want the same page to be loaded but with link2 details loaded.

 

In theory what I want is for the user to click a link and a page to load, but I only want to create one page and for the content to change depening on what link is clicked

 

Thanks

<?php
//Method 1:
include("path/to/file.php");

//Method 2:
$content=file_get_contents("path/to/file.php");
echo $content;
?>

Be careful as some elements of the page may not be rendered properly in 2nd method.

<?php
if(isset($_GET['page'])){
    if($_GET['page'] == 'link1'){
         include('page1.php');
    } elseif($_GET['page'] == 'link2'){
         include('page2.php');
    } else{
         include('home.php');
    }
}
?>

 

Put a similiar code in your content div (or table??) and files will be included dynamically. Supposing your links are:

 

<a href="index.php?page=link1">Link 1</a>
<a href="index.php?page=link2">Link 2</a>
