simple local file script - help!

[mpower87]

 

hey guys, im a total noob when it comes to php...

 

what i need is a simple script that works in the following way:

 

1. lets assume the name of the script is "get.php"

 

2. inside the script there are three variables: 1 - path (which corresponds to a folder location on a local drive e.g. "C:\MAIN FOLDER\")

2 - folder (which corresponds to a folder within the main folder on a local drive e.g. "FOLDER\") and

3 - file (which corresponds to a file name within the folder on a local drive "FILE.XXX")

 

3. then say you type in "get.php?folder=FOLDER&file=FILE" it will link you to the specified file within the folder i.e. "file:\\C:\MAIN FOLDER\FOLDER\FILE.XXX"

 

is that possible ? thanks in advance!

you can just use php to dump the variables into a hyperlink

 

<a href="file:\\C:\MAIN FOLDER\<?php echo($_GET['folder']) ;?>\<?php echo($_GET['file']) ;?>.xxx">Click HERE</a>

 

Hope this helps
