RE: [PHP] Dealing with Query String

Privit Maxim, I understand your approach... i.e. I can hardcode it in the links, but what if I will add more variables in a query string... note in the query string there are variables that are not really related to the operation with the table, rather language ($lang=), page ($page=)... for now I guess I will wind up doing it HARD-CODEed way... Thanks, Vlad p.s. if anyone knows how to solve my problems, let me know... I think the function that would be suitable is parse_str().... less suitable but still doable would be explode()... p.p.s. for MAXIM: I am doing it with languages switching as you can see on the top of the template.. I am using explode() -----Original Message----- From: Maxim Maletsky [mailto:subscriptions@phpbeginner.com] Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 10:04 PM To: Vladislav Kulchitski; php-general@lists.php.net Subject: RE: [PHP] Dealing with Query String In your PHP: On every click collect two variables: $by and $order then, call for this query: Select field from table where this=that order by $by $order; Make sure both variables have their default values in case there was nothing selected. You don't really need a function for this, just a few variables preset before calling mySQL.
