[SOLVED] PHP_SELF not return what i thought

[Liquid Fire]

I have this url

 

http://www.my-site.com/index.php/site/index

 

and on my localhost i get:

 

/index.php/site/index

 

but on my host server i get:

 

/index.php

 

is there a configuration that would cut the /site/index off of the PHP_SELF and is their a more reliable way of getting that?

 

I noticed that PATH_TRANSLATED, REQUEST_URI, REDIRECT_URL, have what i am looking for should i use one of those?

It will return the page that it's running.  Where is that located?

[valtido]

that is very odd loool

 

are you sure you tried

 

$_server['php_self']

??????

 

otherwise you can log preg replace to remove the site/index loool

 

ps

The issue is not removing the site/index, i need that information in order to properly process that request.  I though that php_self should have return the /site/index like is does on my localhost setup.  I guess I use request_url for the time being and hope it is consistent.

post a small sample mate may we can help that way coz its a bit confusing at the moment

um... since my question is should php_self return the site/index when the url is www.domain.com/index.php/site/index I don't see what code you need to see to understand it.  what kinda code would help you understand?

[valtido]

no need for rudeness lool just trying to help.

 

and if you are to enter

www.domain.com/index.php/site/index

 

then the

php_self would be = 'index.php/site/index'

 

so i would say yes loool as far as i can understand you

 

PS hope it helps

I did not try to come off as rude, you asked for code and I did not know what code to give you besides

 

echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];

 

Now to what you said, I have that url but PHP_SELF is only '/index.php' on my live host server my localhost server has /index.php/site/index.  What would cause that variable to be different, a php setting maybe?

[valtido]

maybe there is a server preventing certain outcomes.

 

PERL or PHP or htaccess. im not that familiar with them all loool more of a programmer than enginier hahha if that makes sense  research on google n maybe u'll get somin lool god knows

[Liquid Fire]

yea maybe.

 

I will stick with $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] untill that fails out.

 

Thanks for the help.
