Good Morning All,

I know there is an AJAX version of what I am trying to do , but I would also like to know the PHP version. Could someone review my code and tell me why I am getting a parsing error, please? The parsing error is reported at the closing body tag of the page. Thanks

You didn't close your switch().

This should work:


if (isset($_REQUEST['link'])) {
$link = $_REQUEST['link'];}
else {$link = 1;}
switch ($link) {
case 1:
include ("aboutroots.html");
break;
case 2:
include ("rootsstaff.html");
break;
case 3:
include ("rootsdirectors.html");
break;
default:
$link = 1;
break;
}
