galvin Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 If I have this code throughout my website... $_SESSION['currentpage']=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; I'm finding that if the URL is "mypage.php?id=1", then $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] only returns "mypage.php" (it excludes anything appended to the end of the URL). Is that right? If so, how can I preserve the full URL (i.e. including the stuff after the question mark) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFMaBiSmAd Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 php apparently changed the behavior of $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] (with out apparently telling anyone, I could find no documentation in the change log.) It used to include the URL query string, but currently does not. You should use $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] to get the part of the URL after the ?

galvin Posted April 17, 2011 Author Share Posted April 17, 2011 Interesting. Would it be like this... $_SESSION['currentpage']=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . "?" . $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']; I think I'm doing something wrong because I tried it and it's not working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
