I'm trying to figure out a way so that I can change the iframe source with
just simply changing the src value.
But I keep getting a parse error.

I set the posted value with a link.
value=1 src=page1
value=2 src=page2
value=3 src=page3
if value is anything else, then the home page is used.

<iframe name="home" id="aframe" src="????">

How od I code where the ? are??

It would help if you told what the parse error was, and showed the relevant
code which is causing the error.

Depends on exactly what it is you want to appear there :-) again, show what
you have tried??

Easy to do in JavaScript. Impossible to do in php.

You should post your attempts because it is not very clear what you
are trying to do. If you are getting 'value' in a query string and
want to use that to get the associated page in the iframe, then it may
be that you want this:

<iframe name="home" id="aframe" src="page<?php echo
$_GET['value'];?>">

"Kind of" rarely does work. Post your code.

Sorry - but with this non-existing problem description it is impossible
to help you.

Post your *existing* code - and please in a layout that it is readable.

$apage=$_GET["page"];
if (empty($apage)) {$apage=0;}

if ($apage=1){
echo '<iframe name="home" id="if1" src="index3.php"></iframe>';
}
else {
echo '<iframe name="home" id="if1" src="home.php"></iframe>';
}

This results in "index3.php" being shown when the site is first loaded.
when the link is clicked, which has ?page=1 as a value, it not only brings
in the correct page, but duplicates the original page as well.

On other pages I swap pages with an iframe with no problems.

compare to www.mroldies.net/index3.php

Go to the main page and click the "test" link.

When you will you ever learn the difference between "=" and "=="?

Because of different reasons but NOT because of your WRONG assignment
operation.

if($apage=1)

WILL ALWAYS SET $apage to 1, because a single "=" ALWAYS means "assign
value from the right to the left" - ALWAYS!

And there's *another* thing you haven't figured out yet -- we can't see your php code, only what
the server renders as a result of *executing* that code.

If you want us to see the code, you have to post it.

What does the parse error say?

I suspect you need to refer back to all those posts we've made in the
past about the need to be extra careful with the handling of quote
characters inside string data.

Seems the posts that you need to refer back to are the ones about the
difference between == and = (and possibly === as well).

Although I'm not willing to rule out the possibility of messed up string
quoting also being a factor.
