maybe
<?php
switch( $HTTP_GET_VARS['what'] ) {
case 'contact' :
include 'contact/index.php';
break;
default:
include 'main.php';
break;
}
?>
Not sure if I got the path correct though - I dont know if you need contact folder

Updated - fixed $1337 and the register_globals inconsistence Jeb pointed out, and added the following section.

Now, you may ask - what about index.php?news / index.php?portfolio means of navigation? This actually isn't that hard. You see, when you go to index.php?variable, variable is initialized but not given a value. That means you can do this:
Way one, if you intend to have other query string variables besides just ?page
<?php
if( isset($_GET['news']) and !defined('PAGE_LOADED') ) {
include 'pages/news.php';
define ('PAGE_LOADED', '');
}
if( isset($_GET['portfolio']) and !defined('PAGE_LOADED') ) {
include 'pages/portfolio.php';
define ('PAGE_LOADED', '');
}
if( isset($_GET['forum']) and !defined('PAGE_LOADED') ) {
define ('PAGE_LOADED', '');
header("Location: forum.php");
}
?>
And if you don't intend to have other query string variables:
<?php
if(isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']) && $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] == 'news') {
include 'pages/news.php';
}
if(isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']) && $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] == 'portfolio') {
include 'pages/portfolio.php';
}
if(isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']) && $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] == 'forum') {
header("Location: forum.php");
}
?>
And thats how you do index.php?news

Use $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] instead. I can do this test.php?news&porfolio&forum and it'll load all three pages. The only problem with using query string is that it has to be exactly "news" or "portfolio" hence not allowing you to pass any additional variables to the next page.

I'm using the script from here for my page.

// 404 is the page to load when the user wants a page that does not exist. 404.php
// can be a file that stores the URL into a text-file so you know if you have any broken links.
$pages = array(
'default' => 'main.php',
'404' => '404.php',
'pic' => 'what.php',
'page name' => 'whatever.asdfsdfdsfsdf',
);
$var = @$_GET[$var_name];
if(!$var)
include($pages['default']);
elseif(!isset($pages[$var]))
include($pages['404']);
else
include($pages[$var]);
?>
When I load the index.php page, for some reason, the default page and 404 page both show up. The default page is at the top and the 404 page is at the bottom. If I link to index.php?page=default, then it will work. Did I mess up on the coding somewhere? Here's what is looks like....
<?php
// what variable in the query string. ex; index.php?goto=some page
$var_name = "page";
// list of your pages, what you want to call it and what file should be included.
// example 'pictures' => '/home/url/public/page/that/is/not/in/the/same/directory',
// default is the default page, duh!
// 404 is the page to load when the user wants a page that does not exist. 404.php
// can be a file that stores the URL into a text-file so you know if you have any broken links.
$pages = array(
'default' => 'entry.php',
'404' => '404.php',
'contact' => 'contact.php',
'life' => 'life.php',
'location' => 'location.php',
);
$var = @$_GET[$var_name];
if(!$var)
include($pages['default']);
if(!contact)
include($pages['contact']);
if(!life)
include($pages['life']);
if(!location)
include($pages['location']);
elseif(!isset($pages[$var]))
include($pages['404']);
else
include($pages[$var]);
?>

it shouldn't be $_GET[$var_name] it should be $_GET['var_name']
