PHP problems getting annoying...

[Ryan Ashbrook]

I'm recoding my site, and I have it so that based on a certain condition the content changes from one include of a .htm file to another include.

Well, I get sorta what I want, but when I try to go to a page other than the index, one page just shows up for them all.

Like if I go to www.domain.com/index.php?page=aff_apply the affiliation page shows, but if I go to www.domain.com/index.php?page=staff the affiliation page still shows.

It's probably something in my coding...

You can look for your self here: www.theglassprison.net click on any link that has ?page= in it, and you'll be taken to the affiliation page.

Here's the code I'm using...

PHP Code:

if (!$page)
{
    $content = './news.htm';
}
else
if ($page="aff_apply")
{
    $content = './aff_apply.htm';
}
else
if ($page="fanart")
{
    $content = './fanart.htm';
}
else
if ($page="fanfiction")
{
    $content = './fanfic.htm';
}
else
if ($page="host_apply")
{
    $content = './host_apply.htm';
}
else
if ($page="staff")
{
    $content = './staff.htm';
}
else
if ($page="wallpaper")
{
    $content = './wallpaper.htm';
} 


I really need help on this...

Don't use = when comparing items. Use the comparison operator ==. Right now every condition you have returns true.

BTW, you can optimize that down to two statements:

PHP Code:

$pages = array
(
    "" => "news",
    "aff_apply" => "aff_apply",
    "fanart" => "fanart",
    "fanfiction" => "fanfic",
    "host_apply" => "host_apply",
    "staff" => "staff",
    "wallpaper" => "wallpaper"
);
$content = $pages[$page];
