justravis Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 i'm trying to strip out the first part of the url. i tried submitting 'http://ref.potech.com/php/test.php' Any ideas? Thanks! <html> <body> <?php if($path) { $path=str_replace('http://ref.potech.com/php/', '', $path); echo $path; echo '<br><br>'; } ?> <form action=<?php echo $PHP_SELF ?> method=get> <b>PHP File URL (w/o 'http://'):</b> <input type=text name=path id=path> <input type=submit name=submit id=submit value=Submit> </form> </body> </html> Error Page for the Page Coded Above: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /php/highlight_file.php on this server. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

DaiLaughing Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I don't understand what you are trying to achieve but the permission thing could be due to file permissions on the server. Does the Web server own the file? If you are just trying to get the file name I guess you could explode it on / and take the last chunk. I'm sure there is a better way.
