URL to call a page?

Hi,

I am trying to set up a php include into my page. I have directions but I know very little on php.

The directions say to insert this code into my page, not this code but it's an example.

<?include("http://xxxxxx.xxx/MyFeed.aspx?".$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"])?>

Code (markup):

Then the directions say Use the following url to call the page where you insert the code : yourfilename.php?feedID=698


I have no idea what to do. Anyone know how to do this that could give me a hand?

Thanks

 

I'm not sure about that whole block of code, I'm assuming you know more than I do. But the include tags I'm using for my page do not have the whole query string. All mine do is include a section such as navigation on my page, and to execute them all I need is:

<?php include_once('Navigation/left.php'); ?>

If its something more complicated try elaborating a bit more otherwise this may be all you actually need.

I use include_once because its safer for if your dealing with variables and what not. But you won't lose any of the benefits from a normal include statement.

 

You're using inappropriate quotes.

Assuming this is actually the code you want to use, it should look like this:

<?php include('http://xxxxxx.xxx/MyFeed.aspx?'.$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"])?>

PHP:

Edit: oops

 

Thanks guy, but it's still not working. I don't know what it is. That is all the directions I got. I'm on a .php page so that's not the problem.

 

your extension is aspx which is .net

Can u run php scripts inside that

 

What error is is generating?

 

I get this when I put the include code in my page.

"Please remember to include your feedId in the querystring!"

The first post is the directions, I just put in the include it says.

I'm not too sure what

"Use the following url to call the page where you insert the code : yourfilename.php?feedID=698"

That is what I'm stuck on.

 

It should work as you have it as long as $_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"] contains literally "feedID=698" which it probably doesn't.

The URL you call in your include needs to look like this:

'http://xxxxxx.xxx/MyFeed.aspx?feedID=6654'

 

So what should I do replace ["QUERY_STRING"] with ["feedID=698"]

 

Yes, do like exam suggests. You don't need to use ["QUERY_STRING"] at all.

 

Is "feedID=698" going to change? The only reason why you'd need to include a php variable is if its going to change.

 

Post or PM the actual URL and instructions and I'll sort it for you.

 

Thanks Guys, I got it to work. Stupid me was forgetting to call the feedID in the URL, I was just calling my filename without the feedID in it.

That's the next thing I have to figure out, how to get it to work without the feedID in the URL.

 

Does anyone know how I could strip out the feedID=698 in the url and just have my filename?

I saw someone else with the same feed do this but I have no clue

 

If you explain it I may help..

 

I have a feed setup from another site with a php include. I have to call it by the url www.xxxx.com/filename.php?feedid=698 for it to work. If I just put in the filename without the ?feedid=698, it doesn't work right.

I wanted to know how I could call the page with just the filename without the ?feedid=698 in the url.

Here is how the php include is set up now.

<?include("http://feed.xxxxxx.com/MyFeed.aspx?".$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"])?>

Code (markup):

and I call the page by putting in www.myurl.com/filename.php?feedid=698


I wanted to know How I could just call the page by just www.myurl/filename.php

I know there is a way because someone on another website has the exact same feed and just calls the filename of thier site and no feedid in the url?

 

I know how to make it id/feedback.php but don't know how to do it only feedback.php.

 

Yeah, I'm basically looking for a strip out rather than a Mod Rewrite. I guess I mind as well do a mod rewrite on it.

Thanks
