$_GET variables not working in an included PHP file

[sean14592]

Ok, well my problem is that I have a link which goes to for example http://mysite.com/index.php?page=listing&id=1

 

Now, The PAGE variable sets what the page is, simple.

 

Then the ID variable tells the included PAGE what content to include corrisponding to the ID.

 

I have a problem with the second part, the PAGE is included, but then the included page does not see the ID variable.

 

Heres some of my code:

Bit that includes the page

<?php


//display main content
$pagesavail = array ('home','moto','freetemp','freetempshow');

		$var1 = sanitize($_GET['oc']);


		if (in_array($var1, $pagesavail)) {

			include("http://mysite.com/include/".$var1.".php"); 
		} else {
			include("http://mysite.com/include/home.php"); 
		}


?>

Bit that includes the content based on ID

<?php
echo ("-".$_GET['id']."-<br>");  //Just to test
?>

 

As you can see from the code above the included page should display -1- (if the ID variable was set to 1), Though im seeing --

by including the files with the FULL url, you are including the 'generated' version of the page. So it's just as if you put

http://mysite.com/include/listing.php

into your browser, did a view source, and included that.

 

what you want, is to include the PHP source. to do this, provide the FILESYSTEM path to the file. something like:

include("include/".$var1.".php");
