want to declare variable for homepage

[jhodara]

Hi, I have these variables for pages I navigate to because I pass them in the query string. However, I need a variable for the homepage (index.php), before any query string is created. I cant declare a vari

$_GET['intro'] ;
$_GET['about'] ;
$_GET['contact'] ;

 

However, I need a variable for the homepage (index.php), before any query string is created. I cant declare a variable in index.php because it will be used throughout the entire website. I also cant declare the variable in home.php (the bulk content of the homepage) because I need to use the variable before home.php is included. Is their a trick for this?

 

Thanks!
