Nav system difficulties

[Uncle Ghed]

yes, always boring Uncle with tedious questions.

I'm trying to make a simple switch($page) navigation system with includes.
I have no idea of why tis is not working.
the code is

	
<?php
switch($page){
 case 'DPH':
	include 'discography.php';
	break;
 case 'ARS':
	include 'artisti.php';
	break;
 case 'LVE':
	include 'live.php';
	break;
 case 'DLS':
	include 'downloads.php';
	break;
 case 'GBS':
	include 'guestbook.php';
	break;
 case 'LKS':
	include 'links.php';
	break;
 case 'NWS':
	include 'news2.php';
	break;
}
?>

I know this part has to go where i want my contents to change, and it's in place.
now... what am I supposed to do with the menu? how should i write my links?
thank you for all your help!!!! ^^

[Uncle Ghed]

$page=$_GET['page'];

and

<a href="main.php?page=LVE" id="LVE">

...
I know, i know...
sorry for bothering...

It's been a while since I have coded anything in PHP, but it may be your include statements that are the problem. I am not sure but they may need to be written as:

include('live.php');

Not really sure. But maybe try that, see what happens.

The problem was that I wasn't using the $_GET[] variable to pass its value from the link to the switch statement. Pretty dumb, eh!
the includes work fine... they may be grammatically incorrect, though, since I'm pretty new to php, so if anyone knows, please let me know so i fix my bugs...
Thanks for the help anyways... ^^

Oh, by the way... I'm trying to cut out the '\' character from my mySQL visualizations.
An example could be:

Hey let\'s go to freddy\'s house!

How do i get rid of those? Consider that I'd like to cut them out of my query results, if possible (that is, not one by one for every field, but all straight out! )...

Thanks again for any help!

I think you want ADDSLASHES and STRIPSLASHES. You can find a mini tutorial on them over at http://biorust.com/index.php?page=tu...ng=us#section4

yes, you want stripslashes(), it's very easy to use.

Thanks to all of you! ^^
