Jessica Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 under that line I just fixed, add $section = $_GET['section']; It's telling you section is undefined, so you need to define it.

Cagecrawler Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Yeh, you've put that line a bit too low. You also need to define $page as well.

fbrown Posted February 2, 2007 Author Share Posted February 2, 2007 i got it to work i really didnt need $page or $section i gues the two would come in handy but idk this is what i came up with and it works really nice <?php if (isset($_GET['section'])) {include($_GET['section'].".php");} else {$number = "1"; include 'welcome.php';} ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/36735-solved-seting-the-value-of-a-section-useing-a-link/#findComment-175582 Share on other sites More sharing options...
