[SOLVED] Quick easy code question...

[ShootingBlanks]

I am drawing a blank on the PHP code that pulls the end of a URL (after the final slash)...

 

So, in:

 

http://www.thesite.com/subfolder1/sitepage.php?pageID=1234

 

I would want to get:

 

sitepage.php?pageID=1234

 

I know that $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] would get me everything after the "?", but I need a little before that too.

 

I tried searching the PHP manual, but obviously my search terms weren't pulling up what I needed.  Thanks!!!

Put this code on that page:

 

echo '<pre>';
print_r($_SERVER);
echo '</pre>';

 

That will make a list of $_SEVER variables and what they would print out if you used them. Just search the list for the URL you are looking for, then it will tell you what variable to use.

Predefined variables: http://us2.php.net/reserved.variables

 

The answer is probably REQUEST_URI.

The answer is probably REQUEST_URI.

 

Yes, that is it - but not as it is.  Can you help me with some modification, please?  Here's what I need...

 

[REQUEST_URI] would get me something with a long prefix that always ends with "/admin/" before what I am actually trying to capture.

 

I need everything after the /admin/.  Is there any kind of PHP code that could be written to pull out everything after the string of text "/admin/" within the $_SERVER [REQUEST_URI] variable???

 

Thanks!

FIGURED IT OUT!... 

 

The solution is:

 

substr(strstr($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '/admin/'),7);

 

Thanks for everyone who got me on the road to my answer...
