PHP help with how to get the url

[syntax101]

php how do i get the url of my website and put it i a variable and cut the address

 

 

ex: http://localhost/index.html

 

result in a variabl would be

 

var="http://localhost/"

 

other example

 

http://123.168.1/index.html

 

result in a variable would be

 

var="http://123.168.1/

 

NOTE: the remaing characters will not be included when put in a variable like "index.html"

I dont get your problem wether the index is defined or not it still goes to the index. Like

http://www.phpfreaks.com

and

http://www.phpfreaks.com/index.php

 

They both go to the same place wether the inde is in thier or not...

what i mean is get the current url and put the url to a varialbe string so i can modify it

 

like http://www.tyrants.com/hvillacruz.com

 

all i want to get is http://www.tyrants.com

you want to look at the $_SERVER superglobal
