im doing a random query on my site for 2 things 1 my affiliates which works very well..
<?php include "affiliates.php";?>

everytime you refresh the page a new list of affiliates come up, but when i put
another random query which is
<?php include "randomtut.php";?> which are random tutorial images that come up in an include it joins with the affiliates one im asking how to get them to work seperatly or whatever

thanks!!!

Alright, well, even though you didn't bother to properly name your thread, I was still going to help you.

So I visit your site, and I see "*******" as the first thing. Very polite, just what I wanted to see from someone asking for help.

Well, *******, fix it yourself.

[drakkar]

umm sorry.. im just looking for help

[someonewhois]

Yeah, but 99% of people posting in this forum are looking for help - you don't see all their thread titles as "Help". Try and actually be descriptive. And yeah, don't point us to sites that have worthless vulgarity, like Eric said.

[drakkar]

ok nvm ill go somewhere else.. I didnt know what to label my title

peace

How about "How to include 2 files"? I can't even understand your post, how about using periods and sentence structure? And explaining what you need done a bit more specifically.

what i am saying is i have to 2 random queries for images. 1 is called affiliates.php, the other one is called randomtut.php. I put affiliates.php in an include <?php include "affiliates.php";?>, and randomtuts in an include >> <?php include "randomtut.php";?> when i put both of them on my site they mix together when there both on different pages www.complexgfx.com/affiliates.php , and www.complexgfx.com/randomtut.php

this is what it looks like www.complexgfx.com/template2.php

i hope this makes a little more sense

[someonewhois]

Yeah, that all makes sense - I got the jist of that from the first post. The thing is, yuo still haven't asked a question

The 2 includes you did will work just fine - you can put more than 1 inculde on the page. What's the problem?

[drakkar]

the images mix together the affiliates and the tutorials

[someonewhois]

Then that's an HTML problem, no? You realize includes are server side, eh? Click view source and take a look at what's misformated. You probably have some CSS positioning wrong, or a mis table (if you still use tables)..

[drakkar]

well i used the same code with different images but its odd since there on seperate pages

[someonewhois]

No, they aren't on seperate pages. PHP is erver side - using include just blocks in the chunks of code. Go to the page and hit view -> source, and you'll see the 2 blocks of code from affiliates.php and randomtut.php sitting in the source, you won't see an include call. The problem that you have is the way you're laying out your template. It's an HTML problem, not a PHP one.
