$_GET to name of php file?

Here is the issue in a nutshell. I know how to use $_GET to pull variables (&var=1) in URLs, but I was wondering about using it, or an alternative, to pull the actual URL.

Here is the breakdown. I have a leftbar that is being pulled as an include, and I want the contents to change based on the page they are on in my site. So the value is different at page1.php and page2.php rather than ?page=1

Can $_GET do this? Is there another command that can?

ahhh okay, so it would be like

if $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == [a href=\"http://www.site.com/php.php\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.site.com/php.php[/a]

Hmmmm

Ahhh okay, what I was looking for was $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; since that only returns the base file name

In this case
/about.php?view=vitals
or /about.php for the base page.

About to test it out and see how it flys. I might have some questions involving wildcards in a bit since I will need to get /about.php?view=vitals and /about.php results to act the same.
