[SOLVED] Vriable not getting picked up in an include

[Johnain]

Hi all

 

In my form indexfr.php I have this code ...

 

<?php

  $langg ="FR";

  include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/scripts/inctagline.php');

?>

 

In my file '/scripts/inctagline.php' I have this code

 

<?php

  if ($_GET['langg']=="EN"){

    echo "<p>Training and supporting the horse and rider.</p>";

  } elseif ($_GET['langg']=="FR"){

    echo"<p>Formant et soutenant le cheval et le cavalier</p>" ;

  } else {

      echo "<p>Training and supporting the horse and rider default</p>" ;

  }

?>

It is picking up the default third line so not readingthe variable value. Can anyone tell me why please? It seems so simple !!

 

... and by the way ...do I have to put the starting <?php and the ending ?> in the include file?

Why are you using get? Simply use $langg...

 

Orio.

I tried without but no result. At that time I was using case instead of if, I'll try it again now as a pure reference though.

That worked absolutely fine. Thanks a lot. It just shows how one cangebogged down and too close.

 

Do I need to put the <?php and the terminating ?> in the include file?
