[SOLVED] always wonderd

[richiec]

alot of php sites in there url have something like www.whatever.com/site.php?page=hello

 

ive always wonderd how to do that, im sure its pretty simple..

 

im asking because i just wana keep the main page the same name and have different site.php?=

 

so like www.whatever.com/site.php?page=hello and then www.whatever.com/site.php?page=goodbye

You just simply add it to your link

<a href="test.php?page=hello">

 

Or you can put it in your form action.

 

Read this to help you (read about the GET method)

still dont get it though, all i want it to do is show a different page just putting the ?page= in the link doesnt change it to the page which the page= if you see what i mean it just shows the original page

[Demonic]

<?php
$page = $_GET['page'];
switch($page)
{
    case "anotherpage":
      echo "THis is another page";
    break;
    default:
      echo "This is the default page.";
    break;
}
?>

 

access that by w/e.php?page=anotherpage
