Need to know where I can info how to use query strings at in php.

I am really puzzled how to work with these. I need a good information source that covers this topic broadly. I know the basics how query strings work and how to use them, but I need more information how to use them.

I think you will have to provide some more information, your question is a little vague. Are you asking about the $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] value and how to work with it's variables?

I'm trying to make a profile page like on social networks and I can't get the id=333334444 to stay at the top of the page or in the query string when I send post a message. I want the id=3333334444 to stay in the query string all the time when i'm on the certain user profile page, for example like when I post a message on the profile page. This stuff has been a little tricky to figure out. But I need a little documentation on this subject or something that will help me.

 

Thanks a lot,

i think, maybe you should start learning a $_SESSION... It can keep your id logged in for all time, except if you logout.

If you wish id=something to stay in the URL, then you will have to ensure that any URL you redirect to has...

 

"id={$_GET['id']}"

 

So for every link on the page that links to something else within the profile you would have....

 

echo '<a href="/profile.php?page=fave&id=' . $_GET['id'] . '" />';

I'll try that, but I'm not sure it will work, but will give it a try any way
