Code:

<?php

    @include("header.html");
    @include("middle.html");

        if ($_GET["action"]) {
            $includeFile = $_GET["action"] .".php";
                if (@file_exists($includeFile))
                    @include($includeFile);
                else
                    echo "Coming Soon!";
        }
        else {
            @include("content.php");
        }

    @include("footer.html");

?>

That is the code in which one of my sites is driven by.

I'm not very PHP savvy, and I was wondering how I could include 404.shtml into where the "Coming Soon!" is.

I'm just not sure how to include a file in an echo.

Sorry for the newb question

I would assume you would add the same @include("404.shtml"); type of format to where it is.

I am not that super advanced as you can see. Maybe check out http://myhosting.com/forums/

That is where I learned my PHP. You can do a quick search or even ask a guru. The forums is full of them.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot and check those forums out too. I'll let you know how it goes.

If you have sat down at your computer and read information on PHP you may have been left with the feeling that you are not even sure what you read. When you decide to make the investment in Simple PHP, you will be amazed at the simplicity of being able to personalize your pages, put code on games and even use JavaScript with PHP. I bet you never even thought that was possible and of you did you have no idea how to make it happen.

If my tip didn't work. Check the myhosting.com forums and they might recommend a PHP checker. It will auto-correct most issues.
