hi i'm not that great at php so i'm not to sure if this will work or not. but what i want to do is be able to use ?p=staff or what ever page name, with out the php extion, and i would like to no if this simple script i made would work.

the code is:

<?php 

$p = $_GET['p'];
if ( !empty($p) && file_exists('./' . $p . '.php') && stristr( $p, '.' ) == False ) 
{
// pages = directory where you store your pages
   $file = './' . $p . '.php';
}
else
{
// 1.php =  defult page
   $file = './index.php';
}

include $file;

?>

if there is something wrong with this please let me know

It should work fine. I made a little system in a very similar way and it worked fine. Its also good as its simplicity will eliminate a lot of security risks. Systems like this that use DBs have the added risk of SQL injections etc so this method will be a lot more secure.

Now you can develop the code more and perhaps make a whole CMS out of it! Good work

thanks. what is CMS?

[jlhaslip]

Content Management System, like Joomla or Mambo.

What they are trying to say is: keep coding and you will get better...

[demonlord]

ok thanks, i've used Joomla before but i did not know that it was a cms.

If those codes are in the "index.php" file, it will work.
