need help with passing url variable

Regular Joined: Jan 16, 2008 Posts: 75

I am a noob, there thats out of the way.....
I am working on my first module, I am trying to make a second page in mymodules directory.

I can call the second page like this, but I need to pass a variable in the url
http://localhost/raven/modules.php?name=mymodule& file=secondpage

I have included the code from my script that assigns the variable. when I made the script in php I could pass the variable by calling

http://localhost/raven/myscript/php?cn=5 (or whatever number)
but not sure how to do it with nuke....just a syntax problem I hope.
anyway here is the code

Code:

<?php 





require_once('mainfile.php'); 


require_once('../localhost/Connections/LWC.php');


$module_name = basename(dirname(__FILE__)); 


get_lang($module_name); 


$pagetitle = '- My Module Name'; 


include_once 'header.php'; 


OpenTable(); 





<?php


  if (isset($_GET['cn'])) {


    $cn = $_GET['cn'];


  }


?>

Your URL to your second page would be

modules.php?name=mymodule&file=secondpage&cn=5

You then retrieve cn from $_GET in your secondpage.php file.
