Hey all I really really need to get this sorted. I'm trying to open pages in public_html/pages with index.php?page=name.
So far this is what I've got

PHP Code:

$page = $HTTP_GET_VARS['page']; 
$extension = "php"; 
if ( !$page || $page == "" ) 
{ include "news/news.php"; } 
else if ( file_exists( "pages/$page.$extension" ) ) 
{ include "pages/$page.$extension"; } 
else 
{ print "Error 404"; } 
?> 


but it's not working. When I go to index.php?page=forums for example its just saying Error 404. Any ideas?

The site is www.hl2shack.com if you want to see what I'm talking about

ah ha! Nevermind I've solved it. But noooow, where should I stick that code? It's currently in a layout cell but it's screwing up the layout when I use www.hl2shack.com/index.php?page=characters

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee fixed!! I love it when something finally gets solved =P

Toasty,
