little php help with a code that i don't understand quite well

[bogdaniel]

hello i was doing a little google research until i found a website with a tutorial about creating urls without using mod rewrite can someone please explain it to me and give me some example as procedual code and oop? thank you very much for helping me in your spare time.

 

 

<?php

 

// Get the URL relative to the script

$url = $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'];

 

// If for some reason $_SERVER["PATH_INFO"] does not work then

// you could use $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] or $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]

 

// Remove the /index.php/ at the beginning

$url = preg_replace('/^(\/)/','',$url);

 

// Split URL into array

$url = explode('/',$url);

 

// Display array

print_r($url);

 

?>

[/[code=php:0]

Use this:

This allows you to use url's in the format:

http://<domain>/<page>.php[/<module>]/<controller>/<action>/<param1>/<value1>

 

examples:

// module = admin
// controller = users
// action = edit
// id = 1
http://localhost/index.php/admin/users/edit/id/1

// module = default
// controller = register
// action = index
http://localhost/index.php/register

// module = default
// controller = login
// action = index
http://localhost/index.php/login

Here's an updated version: http://pastebin.com/f12cbc64c

 

Edit: I tested it and I can confirm it works. If you want I can submit you the used code.

 

P.S. This is the correct format:

http://<domain>/<page>.php[/<module>]/<controller>[/<action>[/<param1>/<value1>]]
