Any php guru`s about?

[Si...]

As it is its simply redirecting back to the forum and ideally I would like it to automatically create a new page when a new topic in the specified forum is posted

eg "/forum/index.php?showtopic=1243" makes "/page?id=12", "/forum/index.php?showtopic=1267" makes "/page?id=13", where 12/13 are the newly created pages.

code:

---

$connection = mysql_pconnect("$dbhost","$dbusername","$dbpasswd") 

or die ("Couldn't connect to server.");

 

$db = mysql_select_db("$database_name", $connection)

or die("Couldn't select database.");

 

$query = ("SELECT title,tid,description FROM ibf_topics WHERE forum_id = 90 ORDER BY start_date ASC limit 30");

 

$result = mysql_query ($query);

while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc ($result)) {

 

$tid = $row['tid'];

$title = $row['title'];

$des = $row['description'];

 

echo "<a href="forum/index.php?showtopic=$tid">$title $des</a><BR><BR>";

 

}
