note 30661 added to reserved.variables

following: y at overminds dot org One way I use in small websites (eg. only with changes in the layout) is to parse one var using only: http://localhost/index.php?onething http://localhost/index.php?anotherthing or even http://localhost/index.php?i&want&even&anotherthing if you find it somehow usefull :) Here's the way that YOU TOO can do it, you hottie: ---------- <PHP> ---------- <? $url = explode("?",$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']); // get what comes after the ? $vars = explode("&",$url[1]); // explode the *&*&*&* into the array $vars[] // now just use something like: if($vars[0] == "news") { $page = "news.php"; } else { $page = "main.php" } if($vars[1] == "en") { include("lang_en.php"); } else { include("lang_pt.php"); } ?> ---------- </PHP> ---------- This is only good for simple pages, I recomend that you do not atempt this for any large website or you'll confuse yourself; and pay special atention to making sure it's in the order you expected it to be! (here the order counts! this is just getting worse, I know! :) This is just suposed to create something more amusing than the usual: index.php?id=news&lang=pt to something like index.php?news&pt (can you see the beauty in it? :) I trust many have came across this, not very helpful for the average coder but here's another two cents :) Happy coding! -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+30661 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+30661 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+30661
