[SOLVED] Question About Includes


Lamez

Recommended Posts

I want to include my menu on each page. My menu tells you what page you are on by using a selection code I added to my CSS.

 

Instead of havening separate menu codes on each page I want to have them on all one page in case I add a menu item or move a page, I can just edit one page.

 

So I tried to do this in my menu.php

 

  <?php
$getlink = $_GET["page"];

if ($getlink == "index") {
print <<<IND
  <div class="menu">
   <ul>		
<li class="selected"><a href="index.php">Home</a></li>
<li class="nonselected"><a href="_login/_members/members.php">Members</a></li>
<li class="nonselected"><a href="login.php">Login</a></li>
<li class="nonselected"><a href="register.php">Register</a></li>
<li class="nonselected"><a href="info/info.php">Info</a>
   </ul>
  </div>
IND;
}
elseif ($getlink == "login") {
print <<<LOG
  <div class="menu">
   <ul>		
<li class="nonselected"><a href="index.php">Home</a></li>
<li class="nonselected"><a href="_login/_members/members.php">Members</a></li>
<li class="selected"><a href="login.php">Login</a></li>
<li class="nonselected"><a href="register.php">Register</a></li>
<li class="nonselected"><a href="info/info.php">Info</a>
   </ul>
  </div>
LOG;
}
elseif ($getlink == "register") {
print <<<LOG
  <div class="menu">
   <ul>		
<li class="nonselected"><a href="index.php">Home</a></li>
<li class="nonselected"><a href="_login/_members/members.php">Members</a></li>
<li class="nonselected"><a href="login.php">Login</a></li>
<li class="selected"><a href="register.php">Register</a></li>
<li class="nonselected"><a href="info/info.php">Info</a>
   </ul>
  </div>
LOG;
}
else {
echo "Menu?";
}
?>

 

So in my index.php I would put

 

<?PHP
include ("menu.php?page=index");
?>

 

or instead of index I would put login, and so on.

 

Well I get this error

 

Warning: include(/menu.php?page=index) [function.include]: failed to open stream: Invalid argument in C:\xampp\htdocs\JUNK\LAMEZ\index.php on line 13

 

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening '/menu.php?page=index' for inclusion (include_path='.;C:\xampp\php\pear\') in C:\xampp\htdocs\JUNK\LAMEZ\index.php on line 13

 

How should I go about this?

What am I doing Wrong?

 

BTW I know I am missing Tags in my menu.php

Just make menu.php look like...

 

<div class="menu">
  <ul>		
    <li class="<?php echo ($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == 'index.php') ? 'selected' : 'nonselected'; ?>"><a href="index.php">Home</a></li>
    <li class="<?php echo ($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == 'members.php') ? 'selected' : 'nonselected'; ?>"><a href="_login/_members/members.php">Members</a></li>
    <li class="<?php echo ($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == 'login.php') ? 'selected' : 'nonselected'; ?>"><a href="login.php">Login</a></li>
    <li class="<?php echo ($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == 'register.php') ? 'selected' : 'nonselected'; ?>"><a href="register.php">Register</a></li>
    <li class="<?php echo ($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == 'info.php') ? 'selected' : 'nonselected'; ?>"><a href="info/info.php">Info</a>
  </ul>
</div>

 

then use...

 

include 'menu.php';

    <li class="<?php echo ($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == 'login.php') ? 'nonselected' : 'selected'; ?>"><a href="login.php">Login</a></li>
    <li class="<?php echo ($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == 'register.php') ? 'nonselected' : 'selected'; ?>"><a href="register.php">Register</a></li>
    <li class="<?php echo ($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == 'info.php') ? 'nonselected' : 'selected'; ?>"><a href="info/info.php">Info</a>
  </ul>
</div>
