I am using PHP include code <?php if($page == "") { include "updates.txt"; } else { include "$page.txt"; } ?> on my website, http://www.animeplanetnet.net, and my host does support PHP, but whenever I click a link, it does not take you to the requested page, but simply stays on the main page. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

I think the problem is in your use of the variable $page. You are using it correctly in the comparrison part of your if statement, but it is not correct in the include statement. By including $page in quotes, it is no longer treating it as a variable. Instead you can try: include $page.".txt"; I haven't tried combining strings within the include statement, si I'm not 100% sure if that will work, but if it doesn't then creating a single variable with the full page name first will. Such as: $page = $page.".txt"; include ($page); I do something similar on one of my sites, but I use a Switch statement in my main page like this: switch ($name) {   case "":   case "home":     $title = "Repeat Offenders";     $page = "home.php";     break;   case "downloads":     $title = "Repeat Offenders: Downloads";     $page = "downloads.php";     break; Then as I'm building the page I dynamically create the page title with the $title variable and call the content with the page variable using include($page) Michael J

Sorry, my first ewxmple was missing hte parens. Should look like this: include ($page.".txt"); Michael J
