saeed_violinist Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Dear friends, Is there a way to save a url's "get method" part and save it to a variable? let me show you an example. I have a url like this in browsers address bar-> http://www.mysite.com/?page=about-us Now I want to save "about-us" in a variable and do a mysql query about it! Is there a way to do this without knowing the actual statement after ?page= ? thanks.

cooldude832 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 $var = $_GET['page']; that simple the advantage of GET is you can make links to them like echo "<a href=\"page.html?page=\"".$pagenumber."\">Page</a>"; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/56112-how-to-save-a-get-element-from-an-url/#findComment-277159 Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooldude832 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 also note how its a global (noted with the $_ ) so it can be called inside functions.
