PHP Navigation

[CrazyImpling]

Alrighty, now that I got my main page displaying fixed, I'm kind of looking for some help with the PHP navigation thingy.

So I have a link: ***/index.php?p=news
I was wondering, how does that work?

switch($_GET['p']) {

case "news":
include 'news.php';
break;
}

Doesn't seem to work how I was thinking it would, it just adds it at the bottom of the page?

$allowedptags = array('news', 'index') //Add the other page labels as well this is for security reasons
if(isset($_GET['p']) && in_array($_GET['p'], $allowedptags)){
$var = $_GET['p'];
} else {
$var = 'index';
}
switch($var){
case 'news':
include ('news.php');
break;
case 'index':
//do w/e;
break;
}

I don't see why yours doesn't work.
I'm assumin there is a news.php also.

Okay, that was just plain wacked.. I tried that and it just kept adding pages onto the bottom of what I had. It kept loading more and more, went for around 4 minutes until I stopped it.

Does it have to be in a frame or something?

Do you have an unclosed loop above the switch? That should not happen if you don't.

Oh, haha! Figured it out. My link had an incorrect term in it causing it to screw up. Anyways, thanks for your help!

EDIT: Nevermind... It's messed up again, it's loading the included page starting at 50% of the screen and under the other page that was there.

Do you have a link so I can see what is wrong?
