url = http://somedomain.com/?page=home

That will bring up the 'home' page if you have this in a page called index.php


index.php

<?php
include($_GET['page'].'.php');
?>


of course, you'd need to create a page called home.php and upload it into the same directory

<edit>Basically, the code includes a php page that is called after the ?page=.... so if you have ?page=me, then the above code will use me.php</edit>

You can also use: :thumbsup:


<?php
if($page=="home"){
print <<<html

//add here the html content

html;
}
elseif($page=="anotherpage"){
print <<<html

//add here the html content

html;
}
// ....
?>

or you could do it my outrageously complicated way, and have a database with many tables, customised XML include files and a single page that does it all :P

I actually favour database pages, but XML, nah, cant be bothered at the moment.

its act quite a cool templating engine. The database stores the url of the page, which is an XML file, compared with the ID and a Realm. The Realms have a numerial security ranking, and each user has a number too. If the user's clearance >= Realm security, they can view the page.
Meanwhile the XML files look like
<Page>
<ID>Same_as_Database</ID>
<Title>Page Title Here</Title>
<Headers><!-- additional headers here --></Headers>
<onLoad><!-- additional JavaScript onload functions --></onLoad>
<body><![CDATA[
the page goes right here:
]]></Body>
</Page>

Then the index page outputs these values as and when. I also coded a routine to look for <?xxx ?> markup tags, and execute the code dependant on the xxx language [my server has a built in KPL language]

's getting to be quite decent now, just added an Error tracking system to record all database 404s, 401s and invalid username/password errors. More added all the time :D
