The information is taken from a database... The entire file is an "IF Statement".

What should happen is:

Select the page you wish to view:

[About me]
Description.


[About XinG-Designs]
Description.

[About XinG-Animations]
Description.

Each link should go to each individual page... Like "About me" should go to ".../?p=info&pg=me"

(Example on www.xing-designs.com/new/?p=info)

The information on "info" is written into the file, but on "info2" the information is from a database, the problem being, it shows the links after clicking a link and also repeats "Select page you..." after each link !

Can anyone help solve this problem?

It's very hard without seeing some code but I'm guessing that your not properly checking conditions in your if statement. A true or false value is easy to produce by the script itself even before you set it.

Sorry heres the code:

PHP Code:

if ($_GET["pg"] == "$pg")  {

echo("<b>[$title]</b>");
echo("<br><br>");
echo("$cont");

}

else {

echo("Select the page you wish to view:");
echo("<br><br>");
echo("<a href=\"./?p=info2&pg=".$pg."\"><b>[$title]</b></a><br>$tdesc"); 


What does $pg equal?

Thats ripped from the database (as are all the others). $pg is what the extension is:

$pg=xd

.../?p=info&pg=xd

$pg=me

.../?p=info&pg=me

if u get it

Yeah but I don't get this....

PHP Code:

if ($_GET["pg"] == "$pg")  { 


If "$pg" is the same value as $_GET["pg"] then this will always equate to true. Try this...

PHP Code:

if (isset($_GET["pg"]) && $_GET["pg"] != "")  { 


that does nothing, just makes it worse lol

shows all information from all links not just the 1 u want

Ok, perhaps show me the entire page because there is stuff that I am missing.

PHP Code:

mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "password");
        mysql_select_db("db");

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM info order by title ASC");
        while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
        
$title = $row['title'];
$tdesc = $row['tdesc'];
$cont = $row['cont'];
$pg = $row['pg'];

if ($_GET["pg"] == "$pg")  {

echo("<b>[$title]</b>");
echo("<br><br>");
echo("$cont");

}

else {

echo("Select the page you wish to view:");
echo("<br><br>");
echo("<a href=\"./?p=info2&pg=".$pg."\"><b>[$title]</b></a><br>$tdesc");
echo("<br><br>");

}}

mysql_close(); 


I don't know why I did not see this before, try this...

PHP Code:

mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "password");
        mysql_select_db("db");

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM info order by title ASC");
        while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
        
$title = $row['title'];
$tdesc = $row['tdesc'];
$cont = $row['cont'];
$pg = $row['pg'];

if ($_GET["pg"] == $pg)  {

echo("<b>[$title]</b>");
echo("<br><br>");
echo("$cont");

}

else {

echo("Select the page you wish to view:");
echo("<br><br>");
echo("<a href=\"./?p=info2&pg=".$pg."\"><b>[$title]</b></a><br>$tdesc");
echo("<br><br>");

}}

mysql_close(); 


whats changed?

hmm, ok thats a little bit better... what it does now is shows the information for the link you click... But also the information for the other 2. Also the "Select the page..." also still appears and the other links when your trying to look at the specific link.

All I changed was

PHP Code:

if ($_GET["pg"] == $pg)  { 


I removed the quotes around $pg. However I am still kind of baffled as to why it shows everything else.

What could solve this problem? I still can't think how! Would it help if I send you both the files? (Database driven and non-database driven)
