Question

I currently have profiles on my website with a unordered list for the navigation, when a list item is clicked it loads the content from a AJAX call.

"Users Uploads" -> AJAX -> request.php with $_POST['id'] = '1' & $_POST['request'] = 'users_uploads' -> include_once('user_uploads.php');

now the problem with this is that i cannot pass the $_GET through to the user_uploads.php as it needs it to find the specific users uploads. I know this is a terrible way of handling the requests but i already have it set for the other tabs.

if($_POST['request'] == "photos"){$user->requestPhotos($_POST['id']);}

What would be a effiecent way of somehow passing the $_GET through to user_uploads.php?

Answer 1

Any reason that user_uploads can’t check $_GET directly? Otherwise, whatever’s happening in that script could be encapsulated in a function, and you pass in the $_GET value as a parameter.

Or you copy $_GET to a global variable that the user_upload code checks for.
