Actually, forget the title, I am wondering how to make it so if you say something like

<a href="sample.php?choice1">click</a>

It will do whatever choice1 may be on the next page, so theres like if and else statements that execute, seeing what was put in the URL...

Does this help?
This sort of thing should be answered other places in the forums too, but I couldn´t find any other links.

Personally, I use something like this:

<?php
$allowed = array('sample1', 'sample2');
$page = (isset($_GET['page'])) ? $_GET['page'] : ´Welcome;
if (in_array($page, $allowed)) {
	include("$page.php");
}
		
else {
	include("frontpage.php");
}
?>
		
<a href="index.php?page=sample1">Sample1</a><br />
<a href="index.php?page=sample2">Sample2</a><br />

This script ain´t perfect, and even I don´t understand the part where it says "Welcome" and such (but I don´t know how to remove it).
What it basically does is to get the page and display it if it´s in the array. If there´s no page selected, it will display frontpage.php, and if somebody tries to do something like index.php?page=http://www.mypage.com/evilscript.php, they will also be redirected to frontpage.php.

or you could, if you wanted a more static approach do...

<?php
//next page, url is sample.php?choice1

if(isset($_GET['choice1']))
{
	 echo $content;
} else {
	 echo $error
}
?>
