How do I make it read part of the current url in the browser, for example:
Read the "something=something" part of "http:/something.eg/something?something=something"

I searched in Google, but didn't get the right answer.

WindowsExplorer · 2011-09-17 11:52:21

Anyone?

ohaiderstudios · 2011-09-17 11:55:37

Well, you could do something like this:

Code:

$something = $_GET['something']

To read the value of "something=something" but other than that i don't know!

WindowsExplorer · 2011-09-17 11:58:18

That doesn't read teh current url from the browser

Sidharth · 2011-09-17 12:00:29

Well, it can be done with JS

Code:

location.search

if I remember correctly.

Or if you _NEED_ it to be in PHP, just parse the string with a regex.

sorry, misunderstood tongue

WindowsExplorer · 2011-09-17 13:22:10

Well, I need it to be in php.

WindowsExplorer · 2011-09-17 13:51:34

it doesn't have to be in php, just i want a thing so if the url is http://example.com/image?type=example1

It will show a certain image, and if teh url is http://example.com/image?type=2 it shows another image.

ohaiderstudios · 2011-09-17 14:22:21

so you COULD use my method to find out which image to display!

WindowsExplorer · 2011-09-17 14:29:26

Yes, but ur method doesn't read anything from the address bar.

LS97 · 2011-09-17 15:47:28

Look, WindowsExplorer:

the "variable=value" bit of the URL
http://domain.com/page?variable=value
is called a GET variable.

So, in this specific context, you can read a value using ohaiderstudios's method:
$_GET['variable']

However, it's true that sometimes you might want to find the full URL of the request. Then you need
$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']
but not in this case!

Oh, sorry ohaiderstudios! I didn't realize. I thought that was to set a global var or something!

yeah, it's just reading the value of "something=something" and setting it to variable

I figured that's what you were going to do with it wink

Also, I don't fully get string replacement. Could someone give me the code, and explain the parts of it?

sparks · 2011-09-17 19:14:48

Code:

function curPageURL() {
 $pageURL = 'http';
 if ($_SERVER["HTTPS"] == "on") {$pageURL .= "s";}
 $pageURL .= "://";
 if ($_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"] != "80") {
  $pageURL .= $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].":".$_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
 } else {
  $pageURL .= $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
 }
 return $pageURL;
}

echo curPageURL();

Put the fumction at the top of the page in php tags. I use this one all the time.

Heres some example code:

Code:

$helloworld = "hello world!"; //sets the variable
//lets replace all "o"s and change it to "v"
$helloworld = replace("o","v",$helloworld);
echo $helloworld;

That will show: hellv wvrld!

Basically: replace(replace this, with this, from this);
You can also do blank for the 2nd field, which would remove all of the 1st field from the 3rd field.

Get it?
