[SOLVED] str_replace with blank characters

[DeanWhitehouse]

$logout = str_replace("?logout","","");

this is my code, i want to delete the ?logout, how can i do this(am i using the wrong code).

example

http://mysite.com/members?logout

should change to this

http://mysite.com/members

[BlueSkyIS]

$url = 'http://mysite.com/members?logout';
$url = str_replace('?logout',"",$url);

[DeanWhitehouse]

i tried this

$url = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$log_out = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."?logout";
$logout = str_replace($log_out,"",$url);
header("Location:".$logout);

but this does this

http://mysite.co.uk/mysite.co.uk

People really can't follow directions these days. >_>

$url = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];

$logout = str_replace("?logout","",$url);

header("Location:".$logout);

$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] is the host, not the entire URL.

 

if the script is (presumably) members, why not just header("location: members"); ?

[DeanWhitehouse]

because it's ment to refer the user to the home page, and it is for a CMS so it has to be to there host.

BTW i can follow directions, i just decide not to follow bad ones, as i thought your code done the same as mine

http://mysite.co.uk/mysite.co.uk

if you just need to redirect the script to itself without the query string, this should work:

 

header("Location: ".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
exit;

[DeanWhitehouse]

thanks, that worked

[DarkWater]

Do this:

$url = 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);

if ((substr($url, -1) == '/') || (substr($url, -1) == '\\')) {

 $url = substr($url, 0, -1);

}

$url .= '/members.php';

header("Location: $url");

exit()

 

>_> I didn't realize that's what you were doing.  Absolute URLs are better.
