For that fresh and minty page variable effect

[weasel]

Ok, so, many of you have seen things like index.php?id=1 or index.php?id=1&type=blah on websites. Here is how we designers do it.

For something with one variable, like index.php?id=1, use the following code. Place this code as your entire index.php (NOTE - It HAS to be index.php, .html will do you no good).

<?php

$page_id = $_GET['id'];

switch($page_id) {
 *case '1': //page 1
 * *require_once('001.php');
 * *break;
 *case '2': //page 2
 * *require_once('002.php');
 * *break;
 *default: //if no cases matched
 *	require_once('index2.php');
 * *break;
	}
	
?>

Please note you must make 001.php and 002.php and index2.php for that to not give you any errors.

For multiple variables (I am only using two, but you can add more) like index.php?id=1&type=blah, use this code in your index.php.

<?php

$page_id = $_GET['id'];
$type_id = $_GET['type'];

if(empty($_GET['id'])&&empty($_GET['type'])){
require_once('index2.php'); //index page
}elseif(empty($_GET['id'])&&$type_id=='blah'){
require_once('index2.php');
}elseif ($page_id=='1' && $type_id=='blah'){
require_once('index_blah.php');
}elseif ($page_id=='1' && $type_id=='noblah'){
require_once('index_noblah.php');
}else {
require_once('index2.php'); //if no cases matched
} 

?>

You can put as many elseifs in there as you like. I hope this helps some of you.
