Hi,

Quick PHP question if that's allowed:

I want to write the following in PHP but I don't know how since I don't know much PHP at all. In a table cell, I wanna do the following:

if ((address in address bar)==("string1")){
echo "string2";
}

How would I code this in PHP?

Thanks,
Abdala

Not a hundred percent sure howto get the address/path of the file off by heart, should be easy to find at php.net though

You cannot == strings, you need to use strcmp or something. (look that up also...)

How's that for some unhelpful help?

What part of the address are you trying to retrieve? Are you trying to get just a passed variable like ?this=that out of it? Or an entire URL likehttp://www.yourdomain.com. Or just the calling script index.php? Can you be a little more specific?

Hi,

What I am actually trying to is in the news module to separate the story title from the topic title. I managed to do that. Now, when I go to the index page of that specific topic, it lists the titles of the stories, but it is not obvious what the topic title is. So, I was thinking of checking the address (entire URL) in the address bar and hardcoding the story title in a different place in the page. Talk about terrible coding practice! that's how much I know though!

Another thing, I would love to be able to do what you did in your website, gaining-mass, collect stories of separate topics in separate blocks.

Thanks in advance,
Abdala
