getting the browser url line (newbe)

[Québec]

Hi ,

How do I get the Url from the browser window? All examples start from an
input hard coded url.

You actually cannot, since that info is never sent to server. However, you
can figure out:

$protocol=$_SERVER['HTTPS']=='on'? 'https': 'http';
$user=$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'];
$password=$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'];
$host=$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$port=$_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'];
$uri=$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

$full_url=$protocol . '://';
if($user){
$full_url.=rawurlencode($user);
}
if($password){
$full_url.=':' . rawurlencode($password);
}
if($user || $password){
$full_url.='@';
}
............ God the idea, don't you?



In any case, I'm pretty sure what you actually need is just this:

$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];



Use this code to get all available variables:

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