 Posted: Tue Jun 13, 2006 9:10 am PHP Switch error |
 |
|
|
I'm deveolping a PHP site, and for one of my pages I need to have multiple things in one section, changeable from URL variables. I used a switch code to do this, but I can't figure out what is wrong with my code, the variable name I used was 'page' and it should change if its value is between 1 and 3 inclusive.
Here is the page, and this is the PHP I used for the switch section:
| Code: |
<?PHP
//Selects what goes in the right section-variable denoted in URL
Switch ($_Get["page"])
{
Case 1:
Echo "Aditional List 1";
Break;
Case 2:
Echo "Aditional List 2";
Break;
Case 3:
Echo "Aditional List 3";
Break;
Default:
Echo "Main List";
Break;
}
?>
|
Can anyone offer any help? |

Thats fine if I have the variable declard somewere else on the page, but I wanted it to read the variable off of the URL, how would I get it to do that?
EDT:// nevermind, I got it to work using the following code:
| Code: |
<?PHP
//Selects what goes in the right section-variable denoted in URL
Switch ($_GET["page"])
{
Case '1':
Echo "Aditional List 1";
Break;
Case '2':
Echo "Aditional List 2";
Break;
Case '3':
Echo "Aditional List 3";
Break;
Default:
require ("mainlist.htm");
Break;
}
?> |
Thanks for the help. |

Actually my code works if its passed in by the URL, you dont HAVE to use $_GET. At least it works for me 
But anyway it works for you now thats the main thing |

Your PHP ini file has register_globals on. Don't rely on that. Use the superglobals such as $_POST, $_GET etc. |
