Re: Conditionally include file based on document location

Thanks for the insight, but I'm not clear on how to implement this. Here is what I have so far: <?php switch ($DOCUMENT_URI) { case '/home/globalhemp/www/': include("/home/globalhemp/www/includes/apple.inc"); break; case '/home/globalhemp/www/Archives/': include("/home/globalhemp/www/includes/quicktime.inc"); break; case '/home/globalhemp/www/Archives/Essays/': include("/home/globalhemp/www/includes/quicktime_download.inc"); break; } ?> Perhaps $DOCUMENT_URI is not correct...perhaps it should be $PATH_INFO? Or should I have some sort of return or print statement? TEST URL: http://globalhemp.phpwebhosting.com/switch.php Thanks, Eric C. Pollitt, Founder 401 E.
