.php url problem

Expand Post »

Hi,

I'm very new to php and i'm really struggling to work the following out.

I have a link in one of my php pages
storeitems.php?cat=Foods&store=Yes
that uses a recordset in the target page to display a list according to the above variables.

How can I make my 1st variable (cat) = 'any'?
Whilst I need this link, I need to create a new link to filter everything with a Yes (whether or not Food is present in the record)

Hope i've made some sense

Any guidance appreciated. Thanks, Paul

From what i understood,

While retrieving it using the GET in storeitems.php page use,

PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
if(( $_GET["cat"]== "Food") || ($_GET["store"] == "Yes"))
{ 
:
:
:
}
if(( $_GET["cat"]== "Food") || ($_GET["store"] == "Yes"))
{ 
:
:
:
}

Hope this helps
