Embedded php script not working

sjones · March 27, 2006

I added a contact us tab form (with two tabs) the file is called from a php script in the index page as follows

<?php
if (!isset($_GET['p'])) { // no page specified -> load content from default.php
include("includes/default.php");
} else { // page specified -> load content from relevant text file
include("includes/" . $_GET['p'] . ".php");
}
?>

When I use the contact form and click on the General inquiry link a blank page shows up. It loads perfect when I run it from its location. When it is embedded, when I try to use the second tab nothing shows. Here is the link so you can see.

[a href=\"http://www.uswebproducts.com/country_savings/test_page/index.php?p=contact_us\" target=\"_blank\"]Click here to see the results[/a]

Any Ideas on how to correct this?

Here are the scripts that I am using for the tab forms.

OK I have changed it to this
<td class="<?php echo($class); ?>">
<a href="<?php echo( $baseuri . "?p=contact_us&?tabindex=".$curindex );?>">
<?php echo( $tab['title'] ); ?>

Now the tabs wont change when clicked. It says that tabindex=1 but it does not change to the other form.

Any Ideas??

you added a ?
it should be

<td class="<?php echo($class); ?>">
<a href="<?php echo( $baseuri . "?p=contact_us&tabindex=".$curindex );?>">
<?php echo( $tab['title'] ); ?>

you onlu need 1 question mark and then use & to seperate the rest

Remember to change the other link too incase someone is wanting to change back to first page :)
