Re: identifying clicked link?

Andrew, Close :-) <a href='page_two.php?id=1'>click</a> OR to complicate matters, add multiple names/values : <a href='page_two.php?id=1&foo=stuff&blah=shoes'>click</a> Where on page_two.php if you had : echo "$id $foo $blah"; Will print the following : 1 stuff shoes Note the ? for first name=value and & for the proceeding ones. Or you may have been trying to do : $id = 1; echo "<a href='page_two.php?id=$id'>click</a>"; OR can also be written as : $id = 1; <a href='page_two.php?id=<?php echo $id; ?>'>click</a> And both the above will turn into : <a href='page_two.php?id=1'>click</a> That's the gist. Check out devshed.com for some basic php tutorials. Also, be sure to check out : http://www.zend.com/zend/tut/using-strings.php For various forms of syntax with strings.
