URL question

Is it possible to do the following:

Instead on manually typing the url is it possible to copy the text to make a URL, for example:


The text on the page is Seattle

I want to be able to make a link that will work for all cities that would look something like this:

/q.php?sub=$sub&state=$state&city=""

Instead of having to type in /q.php?sub=$sub&state=$state&city=Seattle

Is it possible for php to automatically put the text in for the value for "city". I don't want to have to type in every city.

 

Sure you can do just about anything.... you can post a specific question and you might get a more specific answer

 

if you know of every possible city you would use and had a list of them, it should be very simple and quick to write up

 

yup, all you need is a clean list of the sities you want to insert.

 

create a file with the city list one per line, just put a comma after each city except the last.

Read the file in via file_get_contents.

put the contents in an array with explode.

Then foreach through it.

I did not test that, but it is the psuedo code I would start with.

Plus ya can leave the city list public and let it, maybe, get spidered.
