Bopo Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Hi Just need a bit of advice really, basically I need to pass two pieces of data from a url, now I know how to do one, like so <?php include("admin/blogconnect.php"); $sql = "SELECT * FROM months ORDER BY id DESC"; $query = mysql_query($sql, $connect); while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) { echo '<li><a href="achieve.php?month=' . $row['month'] . '">' . $row['month'] . ' ' . substr($row['year'], 2) . '</a></li>'; } ?> ?> Basically I want the URL to look like website.com/achieve.php?=March&=2009 something along those lines that allows both the month and year in the URL to be stored using GET. I'm guessing its something similar to what I have done to create the alt tag, it's just the '&=' or 'someword=' bit I'm not too sure on.

mrMarcus Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 example : mysite.com?month=March&year=2009 k, assume that's in the URL .. to retrieve the values using $_GET would be as follows : $month = $_GET['month']; then, if i echo'd out $month, i'd get the value from the URL, which is March. pretty easy, eh? when using $_GET, and passing values via the URL, be sure to properly clean the values as they are easily altered by a user.

Bopo Posted April 19, 2009 Author Share Posted April 19, 2009 Hi Thanks for the reply, however my post must be misleading, I'm fine with GET, I just need to include the '&year' as a second parameter in my URL, currently as you can see I only have month (achieve.php?month=) well I want achieve.php?month=text&year=text EDIT: Nvm, I was just a case of adding the text, I didn't think that would work <?php <a href="achieve.php?month=' . $row['month'] . '&year=' . $row['year'] . '">' . $row['month'] . ' ' . substr($row['year'], 2) . '</a> ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/154749-solved-url-help/#findComment-813796 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michdd Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 echo "<li><a href='achieve.php?month=" . $row['month'] . "&year=" . $row['year'] . "'>" . $row['month'] . " " . substr($row['year'], 2) . "</a></li>"; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/154749-solved-url-help/#findComment-813799 Share on other sites More sharing options...
