out.php?type=rss

[hmsnacker123]

hi, i need a php script written for me where if in the address bar it says out.php?type=rss it will redirect to my rss feed (which is default.xml). thanks in advance

[jc_gmk]

This will redirect to a specific page:

$type = $_GET['type']; // This will store the info from the url in a variable

if ($type == "rss")
    {
    header('Location: http://www.whatever.com/default.php');     
    } 

Where as this will include the page:

$type = $_GET['type']; // This will store the info from the url in a variable

if ($type == "rss")
    {
    include('default.php');    
    } 

Hope that helps!

You can also do this:

$type = $_GET['type'];
switch($type){
case 'rss':
include($type.'.php');
break;
default:
echo "Your not on a page!";
}

ok guys one more thing i need one to go :

download.php?file=example.zip

[jc_gmk]

you can use the same script just replace some of the words.

Instead of $type use $file.

Might be worth having a read of this.

It will give you a pretty good insight into PHP.

Try this:

$type = $_GET['type'];
switch($type){
case 'example.zip':
echo '<a href="$type">Example.zip</a>';
break;
case 'example2.zip':
echo '<a href="$type">Example2.zip</a>';
break;
default:
echo "Your not on a page!";
}

Or Even:

$file = $_GET['file'];
if(file_exists($file")
{
header("location: $file");
}
else
{
echo "We're sorry, that file is not available.";
}
