$php_mysql$ Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 so i set names for every pages, like $pageName = 'home'; //index page if($pageName == 'categories'){ $find = "Birds & Bees"; $result = strpos($title,$find); echo '1'; }else if($pageName == 'categories'){ $find1 = "Money & Honey"; $result = strpos($title,$find1); echo '2'; } now the issue is with categories.php page, which is just one page but displays different title and according to matching title i wish to change the description but its not happening, everywhere only 1 prints, why?
