php code needed...

i need a snippage of php code, which will show an image on one page (index.php), then hide it on the next page (about.php). i only need the image to show up on one page, but the system im using uses templates, and the image needs to be put in the template for formatting purposes. im just looking for a code that will remove the image from showing on any other page but the index.

basically something like if page=index.php show img otherwise=no.

should be pretty simple, and ive tried looking around online, im just not a php kinda guy when it comes to custom coding.

any help is very appreciated, and i might throw a little prize to someone who helps me out

PHP Code:


			
if (isset($_GET['page']) && $_GET['page'] == "index") {



echo "<img code here>";



}



else {



// do nothing



}

That should do it

I'm assuming your URLs are of the "?page=blah" type?

The $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] has the page name, wherever it is from the root

eg
http://www.site.com/dir/dir2/page.php
it'll contain '/dir/dir2/page.php'

http://www.site.com/page.php
it'll contain '/page.php'

Well, it should, its what it does on my site. Then you can just use an if statement to check etc, or just add this and the script above

Try using a buffer?

PHP Code:


			
ob_start();



//CODE HERE



ob_end_flush();

You didn't escape the "s.

It should be:

Code:

<?php if (isset($_GET['/catalog/index.php']) && $_GET['/catalog/index.php'] == "index") 

{echo "<param name=\"movie\" value=\"../../ad/ad_razr.swf\"><param name=\"quality\" value=\"High\"><embed src=\"../../ad/ad_razr.swf\" width=\"399\" height=\"220\" align=\"middle\" pluginspage=\"http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" quality=\"High\"></object>";

}

else {

// do nothing

} ?>

creativejen is an unknown quantity at this point

That right Gary :P:P

But... then again, he could simply change this..

pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"

to this

pluginspage="www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"

meaning, if he takes the http:// completely out, the ' // ' wont make the rest of the code as a comment.

Ok, ive got the page working again, but now the flash won't show

This is why i dont code...haha.

Im thinking that because im putting it in the template file, but the page is actually being processed as index.php, that this is causing the problem. Any thoughts?
