HTML links executing PHP? ;/

[ayu]

I was just starting to make another page for my site, and i realized that i never covered this bit....

for example if i make it like this (doesnt work, just an example)

now as you can see i want a regular link that does something "whatever" using PHP when submitted =/

can't figure it out....well the clock is 00:58 atm so might be that ^^

Anyway, any ideas?

Your close but not quite

Code: Select all

[?php
if($_GET['link'] == "./?home") {
echo "something";
}
?>

]form action="./?" name="link"]
[a href="./?home]
[/a]

You want it to be like this:

Code: Select all

[?php
if ($_GET['name'] == 'home'){
go hthere;}
?]
 [a href="?name=home"]  home  [/a ]

You don't even need a form to do this.
I had to replace the html tags with "[]"
Mods can't you guys use php to display html in a friendly way? Otherwise how do other forums allow tags that don't do anything?

No problem. I had the exact same speedbump in learning php myself like 3 days ago.
