unable to get value of get parameter in url with # - php

I am unable to get the value of a GET parameter in my URL.
My url is like
abc.com/new.php#tabs-11?val=100
I want to get value of val
<?php echo $_GET['val'];
This is not working, please tell what to do.

That URL makes no sense. You need to have the query string before the fragment:
abc.com/new.php?val=100#tabs-11
Stuff after # is not parsed as part of the URL by the server. It may not even be sent by the browser.

#tabs-11?val=100 would be considered an Anchor for the in this instance. Make sure that you put your Anchors at the end of the query string

When a url has a "#" in it, that points to a "named anchor", or a "fragment". It isn't part of the "GET" variables... So, you can't get it that way. In fact, the server doesn't even know anything about it.
Since you tagged this with jquery as well, javascript can actually do that.
var url = window.location.href;
This will give you the full url. From there, you can just search for substrings.
var anchor = url.substring(url.indexOf("#"));
var gets = anchor.substring(anchor.indexOf("?"));
Although, I would like to point out that your url is incorrect. The anchor should go after the get variables.

How to get last part from a URL string in php?

How can I read last part (after slash) of url if my url is like this:
http://testWeb.com/eng/pay-online/#__hc-action-complete--9d79883508
I've tried with $_GET and $_POST but these are empty. Also I've tried using $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] but it also return url till "pay-online". The project is in wordpress (in case there is something in WP which can solve this).
You can obtain the fragment using JS like:
var fragment = location.hash.substring(1); // minus the hash

Obtain browser url value in php

How to get address in the browser using php.
I want a way in which I can fetch the url value that is present in the browser. If I manually add a #tag to the existing url then I want to retrieve that as well.
I have used this code till now, but I want to retrieve https or http whatever value is in the browser.
Also this is my url:
http://example.com/xyz/?p=65
but suppose I build up the 2nd url manually then I would like to retrieve that as well
http://example.com/xyz/?p=65#fsgsg
$Path=$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
echo $URI= 'http://'.$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$Path;
The part behind the # is not delivered to the browser. You could however run a tiny javascript that sends you that information since it is available to the DOM (But do you really want that?) via the window object.
For getting has parameter,use below --
$url = 'http://amitbera.com/path?arg=value#anchor';
print_r(parse_url($url));
echo parse_url($url, PHP_URL_PATH);
More details in http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.parse-url.php
Also,For gettting arg value use $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']
Your only option is to handle that parameter in javascript because the # (hash) part wont get sent to the backend side, You can just detect click of the target element in JS and then glue the # part as a parameter like '&hashValue=fsgsg'.
I hope that helps You in some way.

Get URL variable in PHP

I m in a situation where i am redirecting user to another page with following jQuery code
window.location = "/#/customer/email?isEmail=true&eid=1&template=2";
i have some url re-writing , and so complete url becomes is
https://demo.qa.com/#/customer/email?isEmail=true&eid=1&template=2
but in PHP when i try to get full page url using this
echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
it just gives me this
/
i just want to get variable IsEmail
$_GET['IsEmail']
value in PHP page,
I think the
#
in between the URL is creating the problem, is there any way to get it, please advise..
The fragment is never sent to the server, so if you want access to the query parameters you need to bring them forward:
https://demo.qa.com/?isEmail=true&eid=1&template=2#/customer/email
^ ^
query fragment
The anchor fragment portion of the URL (anything after #) isn't sent to the server at all. It only lives client-side. The server has no knowledge of it, and therefore PHP has no knowledge of it.
If you want to do anything with the anchor fragment, you must do it client-side.

How to obtain anchor part of URL after # in php

While using LightBox mechanism in my project I got an URL
http://nhs/search-panel.php#?patientid=2
I need to collect that patientid from this through GET mechanism, Is that possible in PHP?
Simply put: you can't! Browsers don't send the fragment (the part of the URL after the hashmark) in their requests to the server. You must rely on some client-side javascript: perhaps you can rewrite the url before using it.
Maybe everybody else is right and a simple $_GET is enough but if the # in your URL ( http://nhs/search-panel.php#?patientid=2 ) is supposed to be there you would have to do that with JavaScript (and Ajax e.g. JQuery) because everything after # is not included in the request as far as I know.
If you check your server logs, you should see that no browser actually transmits the #anchor part of the URL the request, so you can't pick it up on the server side.
If you need to know it, you'll need to write some Javascript to extract it from the document.location.href and send it to your server, either by turning it into a regular GET parameter and redirecting the user, or in the background with an XMLHttpRequest/AJAX.
Edit: Whoops, this won't work. The other posters are correct in saying that anything after the hash never reaches your server.
Something along these lines should do you:
//Get complete URI, will contain data after the hash
$uri = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
//Just get the stuff after the hash
list(,$hash) = explode('#', $uri);
//Parse the value into array (will put value in $query)
parse_str($hash, $query);
var_dump($query);

Asynch Page Call From a Bookmarklet with CodeIgniter

I'm trying to make a bookmarklet that will take the URL of the current page you are on, and send it to an application written using CodeIgniter.
The problem I keep running into is that I can't do a standard AJAX call, because it's cross-domain. It is disallowed, and I can't figure out a way to use the JSONP via $_GET method since CodeIgniter blows away the $_GET parameter.
At this point I'll take any suggestions on how to do this. Please note that I need to send a URL, and if it's to be passed via a URL itself it obviously needs to be encoded or something. This I also haven't figured out how to do, so any pointers on that end would be appreciated as well.
Codeigniter unsets $_GET but you can get the data from the query string. It is a little inefficient because PHP will probably end parsing the query string twice, but it should work:
parse_str($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'], $get);
print_r($get);
All the GET variables should be accesible in the variable $get. See parse_str() documentation for some more information.
As an alternative you could url-encode the current URL and append it to what you are requesting e.g.
var url = 'http://example.com/bookmarklet/'
+ encodeURIComponent(window.location);
Then in Codeigniter do something like:
//you might have to call urldecode() on this value
$url = $this->uri->segment(0);
but you may find you then have this problem
It is possible to enable query strings in Codeigniter, but watch out for the caveats - you can't use the URL helper, for example.
