Question

I want to show a DIV ONLY when on /../mahjong.php. So even if I go to /../mahjong.php?layout it should hide the div (since it’s not the same url)

I have tried the following:

// We're NOT on the home page
if (strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], "/games/mahjong/mahjong.php") >= 0) {
  $style = "display: none";
}
else {
  $style = "display: inline";
}

And my div ofcourse:

<div class="menu" id="menu" style="<?php echo $style; ?>">

But if I go to /games/mahjong/mahjong.php?layout it doesn’t change the style. I’ve echoed:

echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

and it changes to /games/mahjong/mahjong.php?layout, so why isn’t the style set to inline?

 if (strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], "/games/mahjong/mahjong.php") === false) {

Didn’t work either. (this wil show the div and never hide it) What am I missing?

Many thanks,

Maurice

Change your condition to:

strrpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '/games/mahjong/mahjong.php') === strlen($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']) - strlen('/games/mahjong/mahjong.php')

This will make sure the request uri ends with that string.
