[SOLVED] Completely forgotton the function

[whelpton]

Hello everyone.

 

I completely forgot the way to process information after the url.

 

For example test.com/index.php?INFO

 

I cant remember how to use the INFO section of the url

[jonsjava]

test.com/index.php?INFO=this_info

 

to get the data, do this:

<?php
if (isset($_GET['info'])){
$info = $_GET['info'];
}
else{
$info = "not set";
}
print $info;
?>

No worries mate,

it is the query string

Example

http://www.domainname.com/index.php?variableName=variableValue

In PHP it is a $_GET Global Array. you can echo that by <?php echo $_GET['variableName']; ?> also you can use $_REQUEST['variableName'];

 

Hope this help.

Google php query string you will get some good documents too.

it's important to note that if you're processing a form that has been defined with method="post", these values are only accessible via _POST and _REQUEST.
