PHP Code:

    $query_links = "select link_name, link_page from admin_links";
    $mysql_links = mysql_query($query_links) or die(mysql_error());
    switch($page) {
        while ($fetch_links = mysql_fetch_array($mysql_links)) {
            case "$fetch_links[\"link_name]\"]":
                require_once("$fetch_links[\"link_page\"]");
                break;
        }
    } 


Basically I had this idea this morning. So I thought I would give it a shot.

And it doesn't seem to run(big surprise) the switch doesn't like the loop inside of it.

Any thoughts of how to get this to work though?

Is this what you were going for?

PHP Code:

    $query_links = "select link_name, link_page from admin_links";
    $mysql_links = mysql_query($query_links) or die(mysql_error());
    while ($fetch_links = mysql_fetch_array($mysql_links)) 
    {
        switch($page)
        {
            case "$fetch_links[\"link_name]\"]":
                require_once("$fetch_links[\"link_page\"]");
                break;
        }
    } 


A switch statement must be of the form:

switch(subject)
{
     case 1:
          //code here
     case 2:
          //code here
     .
     .
     .
     case n:
          //code here
}

Yea I know.

I was just curious if there is a way to do something like I am trying.

How is what you are trying to do different from the code I posted? I'm not sure what you are going for.

In which case you'd be better off with a simple IF.

That's some crazy logic if i ever saw it. You would have to change the value of the switch($page) variable and I don't see how that would happen in any of yer'all's examples.
