Echo Multiple Variables as One

[Leao]

Hi, I want to send the following variable using the $_GET function:

 

www.example.com/index.php?id=https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=http%3A//youtu.be/gvckPiuN9ug&text=The%20first%20kinetic%20typography%20film%20%5B1988%5D%20Oliver%20Harrison%20%5Bpart%5D.:&via=YouTube&related=YouTube,YouTubeTrends,YTCreators

 

The page that receives this variable then echoes it out in a refresh meta tag to redirect to a new page:

 

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=

         <?php

echo $_GET[‘id’];

?>" />

 

The problem is that $_GET in the above example contains multiple variables after the initial $id variable, meaning that rather than redirecting to the above URL in its entirety, it instead redirects to:

 

www.twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=http%3A//youtu.be/gvckPiuN9ug

 

Is there a simple way around this?

 

Many thanks,

Leao

You do realise what you are doing is opening a huge security hole? Your basically allowing anyone to inject content directly into your page.

Oops, I didn't realise this.

 

Thanks Leao

you can redirect straight out of php

<?php
header("Location: http://www.example.com?id=1&name=frank"); /* Redirect browser */

/* Make sure that code below does not get executed when we redirect. */
exit;
?>

Of course you will need to generate the url string to get this done but that is not too difficult. Beware that you have to use the header function before you made a single output. (ouput like html and e.g. with the echo function from out php)
