$_GET - avoid but why?

[Jon12345]

Well, for what its worth my $_GET conditional is doing the job and my scripts are working, with a big thanks to kh99 for his help on this.

Yes, I do like Pandemikk's idea of having my own template call from the do branch, but my vbulletin skills are fairly limited, even though I've learned a lot over the past few days in my quest to get something non-standard done.
