vb gallery

[sweet22]

ok im making a gallery for my vb and i was wondering how i would make multiple pages/galleries out of one php file. like vb with displaying multiple forums from one php file.

ok im using a if($id==1) but i want to make it so that it retrives the id from mysql or sumthing like vb does for forum id. also how would i retrieve certain values from mysql and not a whole field of values?

select fields from table where id='$id'
That'll only select rows from the database where the field 'id' has the value that is given to the file.

[sweet22]

so is this how it should be?

if(id==$id){
msql_query("SELECT * FROM gallery WHERE id='$id'");
}

No, you won't need the if statement.
Say you want to get the gallery that is number 1.
And you'd open the page by using gallery.php?id=1
Your code would be:

mysql_query("SELECT * FROM gallery WHERE id='".$id."'"); 

I type id='".$id."', although there are other ways to do it, just my style.

Hope this helps.
