PHP - A Very Simple Dynamic Title In Header
Hello All,
I am new to php and programming in general. My question is as follows. I have created a header.inc.php and the index.php which includes header.inc.php. I have title set in header.inc.php under the "head". Code: [Select] <title><?php echo $title; ?> In the index.php, I have set variable $title to "Home Page" $title = "Home Page"; But whenever I visit index.php, the title is never called. Is it because the header has no clue where the $title is? Similar TutorialsHello group,
Apologies if this has been asked. I have a site that is generating pages like this:
http://www.example.c...products_id=001 I know this topic is everywhere but I cant find a solution to my particular problem. I have been using a download center script for about a year. http://download.redgalaxy.net/ However, the title is static, keeping with the predefined one. I am trying to get the title to change so it matches the file name shown on the display page "index.php/?nav=display&file=25". I have spent days trying to figure something out with absolutely no luck. Does anyone have an idea how to get the title to change when dynamically? Out of desperation i used an onload javascript but it doesnt work with crawlers. Thank you in advanced.

Thanks I have written the following php statement and it works to show pages titles if I have an id in the url example. www.mysite.com/index.php?id=3 then the right page title is displayed but if I am on my home page www.mysite.com with no id the page title isn't displayed. I am running the code in the header in the title brackets. here is the code. The last else doesn't display my home page title any help would be great thank you very much... <title> <? if (isset($_GET['id'])) if($_GET['id'] == '1') { echo "LBT Services Page"; } else if($_GET['id'] == '2') { echo "About LBT"; } else if($_GET['id'] == '3') { echo "Contact LBT"; } else if($_GET['id'] == '4') { echo "Your Message to LBT has been Submitted"; } else if($_GET['id'] == '5') { echo "LBT Links Page"; } else if($_GET['id'] == '6') { echo "LBT Back-UP Plans"; } else { echo "LBT Home page"; } ?></title> Does anyone know how I would display a dynamic page title to my content pages? I currently have my index.php displaying the title for my page, but the content that i am displaying dynamicly also uses this title, want these pages to have their own titles.. Thanks First and foremost I am PHP newbie so excuse the dumb question but I have been struggling with this one for hours and can not find the solution. Can someone show me how I would rewite the following wordpress code for meta tags so that it automatically strips out the character ' from the "single" page titles? Example I want this title: "My Cat's Black" to be "My Cats Black" This is the line I am trying to edit..... Code: [Select] elseif ( is_single() ) { wp_title(''); print ' | '; bloginfo('name'); } here is the full piece of code... Code: [Select] <title><?php if ( is_home() ) { bloginfo('name'); print ' | '; bloginfo('description'); } elseif ( is_search() ) { bloginfo('name'); print ' | '; _e('Search Results', 'woothemes'); } elseif ( is_author() ) { bloginfo('name'); print ' | '; _e('Author Archives', 'woothemes'); } elseif ( is_single() ) { wp_title(''); print ' | '; bloginfo('name'); } elseif ( is_page() ) { bloginfo('name'); print ' | '; bloginfo('description'); } elseif ( is_category() ) { single_cat_title(); print ' | '; bloginfo('name'); } elseif ( is_month() ) { _e('Archive', 'woothemes'); print ' | '; the_time('F'); bloginfo('name'); } elseif (function_exists('is_tag')) { if ( is_tag() ) { bloginfo('name'); print ' | '; _e('Tag Archive', 'woothemes'); print ' | '; single_tag_title("", true); } } ?></title> Any help would be greatly appreciated!! this question seems so stupid, but i really want to know the best way to write this code. let say i have this code: if(empty($num)) { header("Location:index.php"); } is it okay if i write it down like this? if(empty($num)) { header("Location:index.php"); } i mean there is a whitespace behind header() thanks in advance Hi All, I'm trying to debug my first few lines of PHP where I have all my "checks" to make sure someone is logged in. I have this code all by itself and it is still not executing. This is the only page that I'm having trouble with. header('Location: login.php?logout=1'); Hi there, I'm a movie freak and I'm planning of building a simple dynamic movie list. There are some movie lister software available on internet, but I want it lighter and customized. Here is the idea: It looks like yahoo mail inbox...I want to create this script based on php and sql. I think this is the right place where can I get some help. Thanks in advance. NaimeniM <?php $foo = 5; $too = 7; ${"foo"}++; ${"too"}++; echo $foo; echo '<br />' . $too; $my_var_name = "foo"; ${$my_var_name}++; echo $foo; ?> I understand the part that $my_var_name is going to increment $foo. But I don't understand that when we used ${"foo"} we did not add the $ sign with it. But when we use ${$my_var_name} we have to add another $ sign. why is that? <?php session_start(); if(!isset($_SESSION['User'] )) header('Location : error.php'); ?> im not being redirected even when the $_SESSION['User'] is not set neither does it display any error message other than a white blank space. Please help me som1 as how I can make this to work or suggest any other altenatives so as to get it redirected as i dont want anonymous users to access some contents unles he logs in as members. Thanx This might be a very easy problem to solve. I am literally brand new to php. I am trying to create a simple site that will load content depending on what page 'id' is in the URL and if it doesn't exist to show a page for that scenario. eg index.php?id=1 will show the page 1.php It works fine apart from showing an error when there is no id at all, eg www.website.com will show an error but www.website.com/index.php?id=1 will show a page I want to be able to show the homepage if there is no 'id' at all. Code: [Select] <?php $id = $_GET['id']; if(file_exists("./".$id.".php")) { include ("./".$id.".php"); } else { include ("404.php"); } ?> Any help is appreciated Thanks This topic has been moved to PHP Applications. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=350027.0 Hello everyone, I'm just starting out with PHP as I need to create an online bookstore for a school project. I'm working by a magazine which should teach you exactly how to do this using PHP, but I've had a bunch of problems with the code they use and I don't really know what's going on. Anyway, this looks really simple and basically what it does is allows you to post a comment on a book, then returns you to the book's page. Problem is, I'm getting the Header may not contain more than a single header, new line detected. error and I can't figure out why. I've tried researching into the matter but all the cases I found had to do with returning to an url, which is not my case. Anyway, here's the snippet of code: The form: Code: [Select] <div style="width:400px; border:1px solid #ffffff; background-color:#F9F1E7; padding:5px"> <b>Adauga opinia ta:</b> <hr size="1"> <form action="adauga_comentariu.php" method="POST"> Nume: <input type="text" name="nume_utilizator"><br><br> Email: <input type="text" name="adresa_email"><br><br> Comentariu: <br> <textarea name="comentariu" cols="45"></textarea><br><br> <input type="hidden" name="id_carte" value="<?=id_carte?>"> <center><input type="submit" value="Adauga"</center> </form> </div> The script adaugare_comentariu.php: Code: [Select] <?php ob_start(); include("conectare.php"); $numeFaraTags=strip_tags($_POST['nume_utilizator']); $emailFaraTags=strip_tags($_POST['adresa_email']); $comentariuFaraTags=strip_tags($_POST['comentariu']); $sql="insert into comentarii (id_carte, nume_utilizator, adresa_email, comentariu) values(".$_POST['id_carte'].", '".$numeFaraTags."','".$emailFaraTags."','".$comentariuFaraTags."')"; mysql_query($sql); $inapoi="carte.php?id_carte=".$_POST['id_carte']; header("location:urldecode($inapoi)"); ob_end_flush(); ?> conectare.php connects to the mysql database. $inapoi is the variable which returns the user to carte.php (the book he posted a comment on), where id_carte is the book's unique id. I'm getting Header may not contain more than a single header, new line detected on line ten, which is the header line. Can anyone help me? I've been stumped on this for a few days now and I've just let it pass and started working on other bits, but it's bugging me too much and I'd like to fix it.

Hi all I need to combine these two scripts: Firstly, the following decides which out of the following list is selected based on its value in the mySQL table: <select name="pack_choice"> <option value="Meters / Pack"<?php echo (($result['pack_choice']=="Meters / Pack") ? ' selected="selected"':'') ?>>Meters / Pack (m2)</option> <option value="m3"<?php echo (($result['pack_choice']=="m3") ? ' selected="selected"':'') ?>>Meters / Pack (m3)</option> <option value="Quantity"<?php echo (($result['pack_choice']=="Quantity") ? ' selected="selected"':'') ?>>Quantity</option> </select> Although this works OK, I need it also to show dynamic values like this: select name="category"> <?php $listCategories=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `product_categories` ORDER BY id ASC"); while($categoryReturned=mysql_fetch_array($listCategories)) { echo "<option value=\"".$categoryReturned['name']."\">".$categoryReturned['name']."</option>"; } ?> </select> I'm not sure if this is possible?
