Hi guys
I want to know how to merge 2 php scripts into one.
This is script no 1
<?php
echo "hello php1"
?>
This is script no 2
<?php
echo "hello php2"
?>
I want to put these into one .php file .
How will u call each script, so that either hello php1 or hello php2 is displayed.
Not both.
something like
http://localhost/merged.php?action=1
or
http://localhost/merged.php?action=2
i hope i could explain. 
Thanks N Happy new year to all.
May this new year be a blessed year with peace n good health.

I remember a long time ago, I asked the same question to Brandon.
You can do this one of two ways and I'll explain as I go along.
To do what you ask in php you will need what is called a switch. The switch needs two things: what it will be switched by and what to do when it is switched. For example:CODE<?php
// $_GET['action'] means that in the url, if someone puts action=something the switch will do something
switch($_GET['action']) {
//next we need the cases, or what we want the switch to do when someone puts action=something
case 'number1': // this will let you use action=number1
// here you could either include a file (for bigger projects) or just echo a statement
include('number1.php');
// or
echo 'hello php1';
// statements must end with the break; command
break;
case 'number2':
echo 'hello php2';
break;
// just close the switch and php
}
?>
Hope this helps 
btw. Brandon, what happened to that topic of mine? It was huge

Well usually, you don't put the scripts in the same file, you just put includes towards the files that have already been made. You would only put them in the same file if you were using OOP (Object Oriented Programming). Anyway, an example of what you asked:
CODE//index.php
<?php
switch($_GET['do']) {
case 'say_hello':
include 'say_hello.php';
break;
case 'say_goodbye':
include 'say_goodbye.php';
break;
}
?>
//say_hello.php
<?php
echo 'hello';
?>
//say_goodbye.php
<?php
echo 'goodbye';
?>
for that you would need to put in 'index.php?do=say_hello' and in the browser 'hello' would be outputted. And the same for goodbye: 'index.php?do=say_goodbye'.
