Forums: Back End:

I have 2 case statements on a site , $products and $page. Above that I have. Both cases defaults to the same page

$page = isset($_GET["page"]) ?$_GET["page"] : "default"; 

$product = isset($_GET["product"]) ?$_GET["product"] : "default"; 

Just copied+pasted your code and it seems to work OK for me. Do you get an error? What URL are you using to test it?

I tried this:

$page = isset($_GET["page"]) ?$_GET["page"] : "default"; 
$product = isset($_GET["product"]) ?$_GET["product"] : "default"; 
echo( "$page : $product" );
exit;

test.php?page=1
1 : default

test.php?product=1
default : 1

test.php?page=1&product=2
1 : 2

hmm.. nothing wrong with the statement. are you sure page isn't getting set somehow? even if it's set to "" isset will return true.

so if your url ended up being something like "whatever.php?page=&product=12" isset would return true for both page and product.

might want to change it to something like

$page = (!$_GET["page"] && $_GET["page"] != "") ?$_GET["page"] : "default";

Thanks - the site was moved from a php 4 to a 5 server. The default was subsequently changed to this:

default:
	if(empty($output)){
		$output = "includes/home.htm";
		$flash = "home.swf";
	}
	break;
