How do I do it so like I have a navigation bar with links.

Like one link is like
blah.php?page=about
for the about page, and it loads

blah.php?p=about
with the about words
(It will basically get the information from like about.php)

blah.php?p=contact
with the homepage words
(It will basically get the information from like contact.php)

I dont know whats it called I think its called like dynamic php navbar.

in blah.php you need

PHP Code:


if (isset($_GET['p'])) {
switch ($_GET['p']) {
case 'about':
include('about.php');
break;
case 'contact':
include('contact.php');
break;
}
} 


Okay, thanks, also will I be able to use this like without reloading the page?

You should note, however, that having an open include like that is EXTREMELY unsafe. Let's say you want someone to put in:


blah.php?page=about.html

And you have a file called config.php in the same directory, a person could put in:

blah.php?page=config.php

And get all the information from that page. Make sure you sanitize your inputs.

no they can't and in this case i don't need to

the switch case has only two options, besides about and contact no other pages can be loaded...

I concur, and if you wanted to be vindictive you could always add:

PHP Code:

default:
include('something_most_unpleasant.php'); 


That way those naughty ones who do try get a little in return.

lol that would be fun

get variable with $_GET and redirect the page.
