display error

[doddsey_65]

the following is the code for my homepage (WIP) and the 2nd page which is displayed via get. however when the second page is displayed the ifrst one is displayed under neath and nothing displays on the first page. This is usually solved via a elseif or else which i have included but it still isnt working.

 

<?php 

include 'includes/header.php';
include 'config/config.php';

# When displaying the list of topics #

if (isset($_GET['forum'])) {

$forumid = $_GET['forum'];

?>
<div id="content_holder">
<table id="forum_table">
<tr>
<td id="forum_name">Topic</td>
<td id="forum_count">Replies</td>
<td id="forum_count">Views</td>
<td id="forum_stats">Last Post</td>

<?php

$sql = mysql_query("
SELECT * FROM $tbl_topics 
WHERE forum_id = $forumid") or die (mysql_error());
while($row = mysql_fetch_object($sql)) {

echo '<tr><td id="forum_name"><p>'
	. $row->topic_name .
	'</p><p>'
	. $row->topic_poster .
	'</p></td><td id="forum_count"><p>'
	. $row->topic_replies .
	'</p></td><td id="forum_count"><p>'
	. $row->topic_views .
	'</p></td><td id="forum_stats"><p>';

	if (!$row->topic_last_poster) {

	echo 'No Replies';

	} else {
echo	$row->topic_last_poster .
	'</p><p>'
	. date("F j, Y, g:i a", strtotime($row->topic_last_post_time));
	}
echo	'</p></td></tr>';

}

?>

</table>

</div>

<?

} else {

?>
