How would I get an ASIN to go like www.mysite.com/product/ASIN ?

I'm using the code from Dev Shed.

Make sure you have the "product" file set up in .htaccess to be parsed by PHP.

then in product do:

$var_array = explode("/",$PATH_INFO);
$asin = $var_array[1];

[incka]

I'll try...

[incka]

You on AIM or ICQ chromate?

[Mike]

In product it should be $asin = $var_array[2]; shouldn't it chromate?

[r2d2]

The numbering will start at 0, so the second one is $var_array[1].

[chromate]

Not unless the asin occurs two slashes after the file name it's been referred to from. lol. If you follow that! :)

Incka, I'm on MSN Messenger but that's it.

[incka]

OK, My MSN is sean@incka.com, but it only works 2 out of 4 days.

[Mike]

I'm using the same format, mysite.com/products/asin, and I use $var_array[2] that's all.

Mike, fancy sharing your code with lil ol' moi?;)

[Mike]

Come on MSN Mark :)

[MarkB]

Damn - just missed you. :)

[incka]

What! You wouldn't show me your code...

I can't get mine to work..

[Mike]

Mark has given me free advertising on his site though. If I had to pay it would be quite expensive I would have thought, so the least I can do is give him the script I am using.

Um, Want some free advertising on Games2Go?
