Question

I have built a site using php and want to try keep it one page.. The site displays pictures and so far i have it making links from folders in a folder each folder contains images so what i want is to make a post/get tag in the url and when the page loads it uses this to get the images from that folder.

So I want to use the generated links to post to the same page with a value via self_post is this possible and if so how?

my get section is

if(empty($_post['foldername']))
{
   $directory = "portfolio/homepage/";

}
else if(isset($_post['foldername']))
{
   $foldername = $_post['foldername'];
   $directory = "portfolio/".$foldername."/";       
}

and my link is like this

echo '<li><a id="" class="" href="'.$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"].'">'.$b.'<input type="hidden" name="foldername" value="'.$b.'" /></a></li>';

Thanks

What’s wrong with GET?

<a href="somefile.php?variable=value&anothervar=awesome">Click me</a>
