Multiple values in browser strong from $_GET

[maxvalery]

Can anyone help me out with the following:

I got a php page pulling data from MySQL via $_GET method. Inside one
of those pages in MySQL, I ran eval() to execute some additional php
code to display a list of items.

However, upon clicking on one of those items, I'd like a window to pop
up with information about that item pulled from yet another table.

How can I accomplish something like that via one of those fancy
multi-value browser GET lines, like 'index.php/?id=2?itemID=3', where
id is the key of the page content, and itemID is the key of the item?

Thanks.

That would be index.php?id=2&itemID=3

The ? separates the URL from the parameters. Multiple parameters are
separates by &. There can be as many as you want, up to a reasonable
limit.

If you are putting the link in a webpage use &amp; instead of & to stop
the validator shouting at you.

Thanks, gentlemen.

Is there a trick to writing code so that I can use this method? How do
I write something like that?

The trick is to have your data properly organised in your database. Say
you have a row of information about your item. That row also needs to
contain the id of the row in the second table where you suggested you
wanted to store additional information. When you put this id in the URL
you can use its value in a query to select the information for the pop
up window.
