sending a variable in a link

**lajkonik86** · 08-08-2004, 04:12 PM

Heey guys i'm sort of new to php and need a bit of help.
I've looked trough many tutorials but never found a good explanation how to send a var trough a link.

Let's say i've got a screenshot page and the only thing i want to change is the image. So my anchor would look like http://www.blabla.php?src="blue.jpeg" or whatever.
This is what i see when browsing the web.
But could anyone please give me a very basic example of how to do this.

A simple example...

PHP Code:


			
<?php



$picture_source = $_GET['src'];



?>



<html>



<body>



<img src="<?php echo $picture_source ?>">



</body>



</html>

So for example if you typed...
pagename.php?src=imagename.jpg

The imagename.jpg image would be shown...

Hope this helps

If you need any more help just ask
