[thelist] PHP String Indexed Arrays

[Jacob Aust]

Well...

I am using the string indexed arrays because this array (an others like it)
represent sections of my web site. I plan to use the Index as a GET variable
appended to the URL to request a section. In other words, if I want the
"case studies" section, I will request "index.php?section=case"

I am using the array to print out the navigation between sections and the
Index to identify which section I am currently in (based on the GET
variable) so that I can bold that when I write it to HTML as an indicator of
the current section.

Thanks for the code...I'll try it now.

Jake
