PHP Help
- Thread starter J03
- Start date
it's called a get request.
firstly the page is loaded
index.php?variable=hello
then a variable name is passed
index.php?variable=hello
then the data is passed
index.php?variable=hello
to get the data from the address line you simple use either $_GET or $_REQUEST
so
<?php
$variable = $_GET['variable'];
print "the data is $variable";
?>
or
<?php
$variable = $_REQUEST['variable'];
print "the data is $variable";
?>
to pass more than one variable simply put an & in the address line.
index.php?first=hello&second=goodbye
<?php
$variable1 = $_GET['first'];
$variable2 = $_GET['second'];
...
?>

You dont edit PHP files in dreamweaver, you just do them in notepad, or a basic text editor.
I do - I like it how it is all colour coded, and it has got lil things that help you. Anyway, i dont have the time to code my whole website in HTML/PHP 
Oh, and i managed to do it IN DREAMWEAVER (http://joesstuff.co.uk/testpage.php?variable=page)
I placed this:
in the middle of my page template, where i wanted the content to be, and made a HTML page called "htmltest.html" with the actuall content in.
