I am new to php and just using it to replace frames and simplify code. I 
have a website with 7 sections. Each section can be identified by a 
number. 
 
The user can click on any one of 7 buttons to choose a section. 
 
I want a different colour for the button of the page that is activated. 
 
I have tried this 
<?php $page = 1 ?>       'to number the active page 
 
Then to colour the buttons.... I want to choose between two different 
colour buttons from within a defined table. 
 
<td WIDTH="83" BACKGROUND="buttons_etc/      'first part of button code 
selects directory where file is 
 
<?php                                  'identify php code 
 
if ( $page1 == 1 )                     'if page is 1 
 
{top-menubutton-orange.gif">}           'orange button 
 
else                                    ' or do this 
 
{top-menubutton-red.gif>}               'red button 
 
?>                                      end php code 
 
 
This way it should dynamically create either of the following lins of 
code. 
 
<td WIDTH="83" BACKGROUND="buttons_etc/top-menubutton-red.gif> 
<td WIDTH="83" BACKGROUND="buttons_etc/top-menubutton-orange.gif> 
 
But it doesn't. I need some help to grasp this syntax.
