Site Navigation broken

Smo_Bob · September 11th, 2007, 12:56 PM

My site will no longer work properly. I am a php noob. I use this really simply PHP code to display content on my site. <?php
if ($PG="/0") { $PG = "home"; }
$PAGE = $PG . ".php";
include($PAGE)?> I use links such as index.php?PG=email to change the value of PG to display the next item. all of a sudden my site stopped working and I don't know why. Please help a noob out

Sounds like register_globals has been disabled on the server, which is a good thing for security reasons.

Change:

PHP Code:


			
<?php 

if ($PG="/0") { $PG = "home"; } 

$PAGE = $PG . ".php";

include($PAGE)?>

to:

PHP Code:


			
<?php 

if (empty($_GET['PG'])) { $PG = "home"; } else { $PG = $_GET['PG']; } 

$PAGE = $PG . ".php";

include($PAGE)?>

or more stream lined:

PHP Code:


			
<?php 

if (empty($_GET['PG'])) { $PG = "home"; } else { $PG = $_GET['PG']; } 

include($PG . ".php")?>

That should do it. The $_GET array includes the variable/value pairs sent via the URL after the "?". The empty funtion comes back true if PG does not exist or has no value.
