Topic: [SOLVED] Get filename of script currently being run..?

[DamienRoche]

Is there a command for obtaining the name of the script being run..obviously a command I would have to run in the script?

Can I do this:

$thisfile = ///// command I want

file_get_contents($thisfile);

Basically I want to run my test scripts but also feature the actual code on the same page.

Thanks for any help.

Code: [Select]

$contents = file_get_contents( __FILE__ );

This will give funny results on included files. For this you may want

Code: [Select]

file_get_contents( $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] );
I'm 99% sure DOCUMENT_ROOT is derived from the server... but I'm not entirely sure about SCRIPT_NAME... so you may want to sanitize.

Thanks discomatt! __FILE__ works perfectly. I'm running it on a local machine so not sure how that will effect the second method.

I'll give the other method a try if I decide to put this online.

Thanks again!

This should also work, assuming the var is defined

Code: [Select]

$contents = file_get_contents( $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'] );
