Howdy-
I've been all over the web during the past 3 hours trying to find the right way to do this. Hopefully somebody can help me out.
This is a theoretical example of what I want to accomplish.
Directory 1
index.php
* navigation1.html
gymclass.php
The index page for Directory 1 is a frameset that has navigation1.html as a nav frame, and gymclass.php as the content frame.
Directory 2
index.php
* navigation2.html
running.php
jumping.php
The index page in Directory 2 is a frameset that has a navigation2.html as a nav frame and running.php as the content frame.
* navigation2.html is the same as navigation1.html, except navigation2.html contains links to sub sections of the section that was chosen.
Ex:
navigation1.html
Home
Activities
Hours of Operation
Contact Us
Navigation2.html
Home
Activities
-Running
-Jumping
Hours of Operation
Contact Us
Okay this is the interesting part...
On gymclass.php, I have two links for running.php and jumping.php. If you select running.php, it is linked to the index for Directory2 - no problem there. But if you select jumping.php, there is no way (that I can figure out) to make it show navigation2.html as a nav, and jumping.php as the main. It would show jumping.php in the frameset for Directory1.
My question being, is there any way to specify what the main content page will be in the index file for Directory2. So I could call http://www.mygymclass.com/Directory2/index.php?action=jumping
I've been thumbing through my php books, and digging through the manual on http://www.php.net, but I can't find any way to do this that looks right. There looks like there are some ways that I could work it out, but none jumped out as being "the way" to do it.
I would assume that I would have to set both running.php & jumping.php up as actions, the code looking something like this:
if ($action=="") {
$action="running";
}
if ($action=="running") {
echo "<frameset>";
echo "<frame name=\"navigation\" target=\"main\" src=\"navigation2.html\">";
echo "<frame name="main" src="running.php">";
echo "</frameset>";
}
if ($action=="jumping") {
echo "<frameset>";
echo "<frame name=\"navigation\" target=\"main\" src=\"navigation2.html\">";
echo "<frame name="main" src="jumping.php">";
echo "</frameset>";
}
Is that somewhat right? I'm mainly concerned with the syntax of the actions themselves.
ANY help would be appreciated :)
