MadDawgX Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Hey there. Im fairly new to PHP and would like some help. Im trying to check for a variable in the address bar. eg. [code]http://www.twisterentertainment.org/news.php?page=1[/code]What im trying to do is make an if statement that checks if page = 1 then do a series of html code. I've tried but it doesn't work, here it is.[code]<?php if ($_GET['page'] = 1) { ?>// HTML CODE<?php}?>[/code] Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/11663-noob-needs-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
joquius Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 ok I advise to go back over the basic operators.First, $_GET['var'] is right but = will not given you a true resultyou need to use if ($_GET['var'] == 1)however you can use $string = 1; to defined a string.Also, I would advise to check if that HTTP_VAR exists first before putting it in a comparative function.if (isset ($_GET['var']) && $_GET['var'] == 1) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/11663-noob-needs-help/#findComment-44046 Share on other sites More sharing options...
