futrose Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I was wondering what the best way would be to set up/write a script that would lay information out differently based on where a user navigated to, using php and mysql. I can't have all the information laid out identically for every page/category. (not every page will be different) But for some pages I may need data displayed in 2 columns, others 3 and most just 1. Is there some way to do this?

snowman15 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I would use a $_GET variable that carries a variable for the different layouts. ex: index.php?layout=1 You can now use $_GET['layout'] to decide where you want to go from there. this is also a link friendly version of moving variables around because you can code your links like: <a href="mypage.php?layout=3" /> happy coding Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/218106-switch-page-template-based-on-what-navigaton-link-user-clicks/#findComment-1131965 Share on other sites More sharing options...
