Navigation Bars help

this problem should be easy as hell yet I have no idea how to solve it.

Brief Description:[/COLOR]
my web page has two navigation bars. One of them is navigating the main content; the other one is navigating the news content.

Problem:
whenever I called content in main, the content in news will disappear.
Whenever I called the content in news, the content in main will disappear.

My code:
I am using this method to call my content:

<?php//in the main section
if (!isset($_REQUEST['content']))
include("primary.inc.php");
else
{
$content = $_REQUEST['content'];
$nextpage = $content . ".inc.php";
include($nextpage);
}
?>

<?php//in the news section
if (!isset($_REQUEST['news']))
include("secondary.inc.php");
else
{
$content = $_REQUEST['news'];
$nextpage = $content . ".inc.php";
include($nextpage);
}
?>

Possible Solution:
1. should I create some kind of memory to memorize the content of each "main" and "news"?
2. or there is a better way to solve this problem.


Can anyone help me please?
Thank you so MUCH!

 

Make sure that content and news always set at the url or write the last news or main page to $_SESSION (may read about session handling at www.php.net) and take that to your !isset conditions.

 

Could you provide me the working URL?

 

Everything is coded in WAMP sever, so I don't have URL for u.
Do you have any preference that I can help you to see my code/web-page?

Thank you so much for responding to my concern.
