Get page name

[acslater323]

How do you get the name of a page from the address bar using PHP?

e.g. http://www.somepage.com/about.htm

Return:

$page = "about";

<?php echo $PHP_SELF; ?>

Is this what you want?...

[acslater323]

Well, not really, because that spits back the whole path. I want just the filename minus the extension, as illustrated in my example above.

try:


basename($_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"],'.php');

Just do $PHP_SELF and then parse it. look for the last occurance of '/' and the last occurance of '.' then use substr to get all in the stuff inbetween.

Could you use <?php echo $PHP_SELF; ?> and then get the basename() for it?

[acslater323]

Either way should work. Thanks, guys.

[darksidepuffin]

thats basically the same thing as my solution..except a different variable.

Oh yeah, I didn't see the basename function on your code.

My bad. Heh.
