Include a file based on the url of the page

Is there an easy way to to this ?
I want to write a general template that will include one of these parts depending on the file that is called
if file1.php include

<?php
chdir("../includes");
include 'include1.inc';  
?> 

PHP:

if file2.php include

<?php
chdir("../includes");
include 'include2.inc';  
?> 

PHP:

any hints on what I should look in to ?

Thanks for your help !

$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] will give you /file1.php, etc, as a string. you can manipulate it from there to do what you want.

 

thanks .... green given!

 

hmmm.... maybe I need more info incase file1 and file2 are not in the same directory. agh!

EDIT : it seems it will give a list of the directories and path aswell. Thanks !

 

how can I make sure that a request for
http://www.mysite.com/test/
http://www.mysite.com/test/index.php

$request_uri = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];

PHP:

that $request_uri will have the same value ?

EDIT :I guess $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; is better as it gives what I need.

 

Use ModRewrite to convert the folder path to a querystring variable, then use your $_GET['var'] to define which include to use
