You could also check to see if $_GET['page'] contains a value, and if it does
not, then redirect it. Something like this:
if($_GET['page'] == ''){
header("Refresh: 0; URL=http://www.domain.com/start.php?page=home");
}
Granted that isn't validating the $_GET['page'] variable input for security,
but that should at least get you going. Also, that assumes that all your
pages use the GET query to specify which page they are on. If that's just
for the initial page, then you'd have to do some more qualification.
