Query Strings, how do you do it? Options

[Mikeplyts]

I was wondering how you could make those url's that have a question mark and a few equal signs and such at the end of a url. I belive they are called query strings, right? How can I do it to like make a page go to a next page such as this where it has "?page=2". I know it has to something with PHP and I tried googling tutorials but I just don't understand. Can someone please explain how to do this like if I wanted to make the page go the second page using a simple HTML "a" tag? Thanks.

Yes. But dont put <?php include() ?> just put include() cause the <?php ?> tags are already there. Unless of course you put it outside the code then it would be normal.

Edi: also quick thing, even though long php url's look cool, it's not very practical and it would be better to keep em short.

What i do is make a seperate directory with its own index for each new page so instead of wefuze.com/contact.php its wefuze.com/contact/
