Creating pages with id.

[sean14592]

Hi, as you can see im new at php, though i am learning very quickly and just need  bit of a start.

 

Basically im creating a site that allows users to add pages in the cpanel. This is the steps they will take:

 

Login-->Cpanel Home--> Click add page--> fill in form with details for that page--> this will then be stored in DB and given a unique ID-->

 

NOW THIS IS THE BIT I DONT GET I need to create a page like http://mysite.com/pages/index.php?[iD] or http://mysite.com/pages/[iD].php

 

I cant see how I can do this, any help that will point me in the right direction would be very, very nice.

Cheers

Sean

its like this..

 

index.php?id=5

 

and on the index.php page, put...

 

<?php
function sql_quote($data) {
  if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
  $data = stripslashes($data);
  }
return addslashes($data);
}

$id = sql_quote($_GET['id']);

?>

to get the ID from

 

index.php?id=5

 

in php is

 

$_GET['id'];

 

so for example

 

echo $_GET['id'];

would print 5 to the page

 

theirs no need to filter it, until you know what your doing with it

$id=$_GET['id']

I now how to do that, its the matter of creating a duplicate page using a design that I already have.
