I use an application framework where a main page parses the $_REQUEST
variable for an $action and a $page variable and also any $button_x
variables that may have been set by form submissions.
The body of the script then processes any actions and sets the $page
variable
Eg
// code to parse for buttons being pressed
buttons = array('edit','delete','add','cancel');
foreach ($buttons as $val)
{
$pressed=key_exists($val.'_x',$_REQUEST) ? $val : ( isset($pressed)
? $pressed : '');
}
// Code to parse the action
switch ( isset($_REQUEST['action']) ? $_REQUEST['action'] : '' )
{
case 'login':
// login stuff
if (AuthenticationManager::login($_REQUEST['username'],
$_REQUEST['password']))
{
$authUser = AuthenticationManager::getAuthenticatedUser();
$_REQUEST['page'] = 'user_management';
}
else
{
$status = 'failed';
}
break;
case 'edit_user:
.....
}
switch ( isset($_REQUEST['page']) ? $_REQUEST['page'] :
'user_management' )
{
case 'user_management':
$title .= ' - User Management';
$users = AuthenticationManagerPlugin::getUsers();
...
break;
case 'edit_user':
$title .= ' - Login';
$user =
AuthenticationManagerPlugin::getUserAndRolesById($_REQUEST['usr_id']);
...
break;
// if login or no page then show login
case 'login':
$title .= ' - Login';
...
break;
}
// Assign variables and render
$smarty->assign('title',$title);
$smarty->display('admin.tpl');
What I actually use is abstracted into a class structure that we'll
release on a website we're currently developing.
