url stuff

[iGuest 3]

if your website has sections in this form..

http://www.domain.com/?page="pagename"

and you want it to show the same page at

http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/" aswell...

then this might help... i suggest you just take bits of it out and use them yourself, cos this is very specific to my site.

It should be in the 404.php file.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////$url = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];$url2 = substr($url, 1,1);if($url2 !== "?" && isset($url)) {$url = substr(strrchr($url, "."), 1, 4);//if the string appended to the domain doesnt end in php..check if its a userif($url !== "php") {//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////$url = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];$url = substr($url, 1);$users = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='$url' AND activated='1'");$num = mysql_num_rows($users);if ($num) {while($user=mysql_fetch_array($users)) {/////////////if the string is a user, then set the variables to that it parses the users page$page = "users";$sectionarea = $page.' - '.$url;$a = "$url";$val = 1;/////////}} else {//get all the text after '?'$url2 = strstr($url, '?');if($url2) {$url = strrchr(strrev($url), "?");$url = substr($url, 1);$url = strrev($url);$sectionarea = (ucfirst($url));} else {$sectionarea = (ucfirst($url));}}//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////}}if($url2 == "?" || empty($url)) {$sectionarea = $_GET['page'];if(!$sectionarea) {$sectionarea = Home;} else {$sectionarea = ucfirst($sectionarea);}}///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

After this...

include the content, and navigate through it to show certain content when the variable $sectionarea is equal to certain things.

I.e. if it is Home... then display the home page, if it is News, then display the news blah blah
