PHP Links

[Wasiu0607]

I have problems with my links. For my website, I put <a href=main.php?id=akira.html> and uploaded my akira.html, but when I click on the link, nothing happened!
http://www.animeng.vzz.net/main.php is the URL. Thanks

We're going to need to see some code, and a description of what is supposed to happen...

[Wasiu0607]

Um.. Like I don't want to have to copy my navigation code and stuff just to make a page, so I use the PHP code, like mentioned above, but its not working.
It's suppose to redirect to my other contents page (The page without the navigation and stuff) without losing my navigation.

it would still be a lot easier to help you if you posted your code...however, if youre using something like this:

if($id){
include $id;
}

you might find it easier to do something like this instead:

if($id){
include "$id.html";
}

then use your link as main.php?id=akira instead...

however if thats not what you're looking for, we're going to need to see some of your code...

[Wasiu0607]

Where do I put that code?
What I mean is that I want my links to be like the website here: http://www.anime-star.com/news.php where the links say something like main.php?id=whatever
But when I put that on my navigation, <a href=main.php?id=akira.txt>Akira</a> and uploaded my Akira page, it doesn't even redirect to that page.. http://www.animeng.vzz.net/main.php is my website . The navigation are on the left. THanks

You place the PHP-code where you want the content from the file to appear on your page.


<?php

if($id){
include "$id.html";
}

?>


Then a link like index.php?id=test would make the contents of test.html appear there

Okay, but I downloaded Fusion News program so that I can update news easier. (www.fusionphp.net) and I have to use <?php include "news/news.php";?> in order for my news to appear. But since I'm using that, how can I use the code you gave me above at the same time? Thanks

[Da Warriah]

well ive used fusion news as well, and both will work just fine...just insert the code where you want the included page to display like Kr|Z said...

*reads post again* or are you wanting to switch pages from the news page, and include another file? try this if thats what you're wanting:

<?php

if($id == "news"){
include "news/news.php";
} else {
include "$id.html";
}

?>

[Wasiu0607]

When I enter that code, it gave me the PHP error
Warning: main(.html): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /data/hosted/animeng/main.php on line 120

Warning: main(.html): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /data/hosted/animeng/main.php on line 120

Warning: main(): Failed opening '.html' for inclusion (include_path='./') in /data/hosted/animeng/main.php on line 120

[Kr|Z]

<?php

if($id == "news"){
include "news/news.php";
} elseif($id) {
include "$id.html";
}

?>

[Wasiu0607]

Ugh the codes still dont work.. Now my news dont even show up :/ ..
These are my codes for my content and navigation page:

<!-- start of content-->
<?php

if($id == "news"){
include "news/news.php";
} elseif($id) {
include "$id.html";
}

?>
<!--end of content-->





<!--start of main menu-->
<DIV style="LEFT: 20px; WIDTH: 145px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 232px; HEIGHT: 400px">
<h1>Anime >>></h1>
<a href=main.php?page=anime/akira.html>Akira</a><br>
<a href=main.php?page=anime/cardc.html>Cardcaptors</a><br>
<a href=main.php?page=anime/evangelion.html>Evangelion</a><br>
<a href=main.php?page=anime/oh!mygoddess.html>Oh! My Goddess</a><br>

<a href=main.php?page=anime/yugioh.html>Yu-Gi-Oh!</a><br>
</p>
</div>
<!--end of main menu-->

[Da Warriah]

well ok, lets see if we cant change this a bit...if you want the news to appear automatically, by default, change it to this:

<?php

if(!$id || $id == ""){
include "news/news.php";
}
elseif($id){
include "anime/$id.html";
}

?>

and then, change your links to this::

<a href=main.php?id=akira>Akira</a><br>
<a href=main.php?id=cardc>Cardcaptors</a><br>
<a href=main.php?id=evangelion>Evangelion</a><br>
<a href=main.php?id=oh!mygoddess>Oh! My Goddess</a><br>
<a href=main.php?id=technimuyo>Techni Muyo!</a><br>
<a href=main.php?id=trigun>Trigun</a><br>
<a href=main.php?id=yugioh>Yu-Gi-Oh!</a><br>

that should work a bit better for you...tho im not sure about the exclamation mark in the oh!mygoddess link...

[Wasiu0607]

Ugh.. Yeah it worked a little. Now my news showed up, but its out of my DIV area. And when I goto Akira, it said the same error, the not found thing..:mad:

[Nevermore]

Is it looking for akira.html in the right place?

[Da Warriah]

no its not, you didnt change the PHP part of the code:

<?php

if(!$id || $id == ""){
include "news/news.php";
}
elseif($id){
include "anime/$id.html";
}

?>

that should find akira.html now...however as for being outside the div, you should put that code EXACTLY where you want the news to appear...something like this:

<div>
<?php

if(!$id || $id == ""){
include "news/news.php";
}
elseif($id){
include "anime/$id.html";
}

?>
</div>

[pyro]

I'd also have to recommend not using global variables. Add this to the top of the script:

$id = $_GET["id"];

I copied the second one, with the DIV, but yet my news is still out of my DIV box..
The links seem to work fine now thanks ^_^
