you can also use a "PHP Navigation" and use Mod-Rewrite.

PHP Code:


			
<?

if(file_exists("$page.php")){ 

include("$page.php");

} else { 

include("default.php"); 

}?>

That is your navigation code above, now you can make it so its like this:
yourdomain.com/page/about/

instead of like this:
yourdomain.com?page=about

by using this:
RewriteRule page/(.*)/ /index.php?page=$1

That above code is in the file .htaccess , so you can add it there.

hope i helped you out.

PS. you need to direct link your images though!

This will increase your SEO too

PHP Code:


			
<html>

<head>

<title>First PHP Page!!! Yay!</title>

</head>

<body>

My content is below:

<?php

switch($id)

{

/*

Default means this is the default page that is included. 

For example, when someone types blindfate.com they will have the 

home.php page included. 

*/

  default:

    include('home.php');

  break;





/*

Case means what will appear when you type the url in to the browser. 

Example, if  I wanted the "the_website_page.php" to load I would type:

index.php?id=websites

*/

  case "websites":

    include('the_website_page.php');

  break;



/*

Once again, if you want to link to the page called form_send_pro.php 

then you simply type <a href="index.php?id=contact">Contact Us</a>

*/

  case "contact":

    include('form_send_pro.php');

}

?>

</body>

</html>

I hope that explains it, the yellowy/orange can be a little hard on the eyes though.

yeah, sletts02 explained it very well.
and thanks for that rewrite snippet B72, might use that..
although, i would advise against using that php script for your includes, as it is insecure and prone to sql injections, etc.

I, personally, wouldnt use B72's php include, although it does check to see if the file exists, it doesnt provide much more, for your situation, it sounds like you would be fine using the switch statement.
