php function to open an html page

Hello everybody,

I have this php code in a script which has a switch statement:

Code:

<?php

 include "/usr/local/include/php/fns.php";

?>

<html>

<head><title>Bla blah Blah</title></head>

<body bgcolor="pink">

<?php

 switch($_POST['act_choice'])

  {

    case "pgpr":

        pgpr_form1();

        break;

    case "alpha":

        alpha_form1();

        break;

    case "vpt":

        vpt_form1();

        break;

  }

?>

</body>

</html>

Is there a php function which can directly open a given html page. In above case, I want that in case "ppr" a form (say ppr_form.html) should open, similarly for case "alpha" a form - alpha_form.html, should be opened. I believe there is some php function which should do it.

Can anyone guide a greenhorn like me?

Thanks in advance.

Hi!

You can use:

PHP Code:




case "pgpr": 
   if(file_exists("ppr_form.html")) 
      include 'ppr_form.html'; 
   break;

This will include the content of "ppr_form.html" at that place in your main page.

Or redirect to a new page, this will show only "ppr_form.html" as new page without including it in your main page:

PHP Code:




case "pgpr": 
   header("Refresh: 0;url=ppr_form.html"); 
   break;

Cheers, Boby!

Thanks Boby,
You have been of immense help.
