.php?=content

[chrisjunkie]

I didnt know what to search for but i want to change [a href=\"http://sitename/content/womd/index.html\" target=\"_blank\"]http://sitename/content/womd/index.html[/a] to [a href=\"http://sitename/content.php?=womd\" target=\"_blank\"]http://sitename/content.php?content=womd[/a] but i do not know how!


ANY HELP GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

I assume that you are talking about:

User clicks a link and takes them to point A but you want the address bar to read as if it took the user to point B?

PHP doesn't have the ability to do this. You would want to look into Apache's mod_rewrite, but I don't know that it would help much since your rerwite needs to rewrite with a populated variable.

Thanks for the reply but i want to do something similar to phpnuke. When you type [a href=\"http://sitename/modules.php?name=downloads\" target=\"_blank\"]http://sitename/modules.php?name=downloads[/a] it takes you to /modules/Downloads/index.php How do i do this?

Cheers

here, this code will get you going in the right direction..


make this content.php

[code]
<?php
$content = $_GET['content'];

if($content == "womd"){
    include("http://sitename/content/womd/index.html"){
}
else{
    echo "Sorry, unknown content view specified!";
}
?>
[/code]

then go to content.php?content=womd to test :)

[chrisjunkie]

Thanks! but i want multiple content so how would i intergrate the example below

[code]$content="content/$name/index.html" [/code]

$name might be womd

[Prismatic]

Like this:

[code]
<?php
$name = $_GET['name'];

$content ="content/$name/index.html"

if($name){
    include($content){
}
else{
    echo "Sorry, unknown name specified!";
}
?>
[/code]

Make that content.php and do this: content.php?name=womd to test
