I have got a url like this - http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1820816888
Now i want to get the value in the id - 1820816888
I tried on many ways they are giving whole part of the query - id=1820816888
I tried parse_url but it shows id=1820816888 but just want to get 1820816888
Use a regular expression, e.g.
$url = 'http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1820816888';
preg_match('/.+[?&]id=(\d+)/', $url, $matches);
echo $matches[1];
all the parameters are stored in $_GET array:
so something like:
echo $_GET['id'];
will give you the value of the id.

I've had a look around and can't find an answer specific to my needs...
This is the URL being sent back to my redirect page from an identity server: http://localhost/?code=92092c2f65560d835a73cda852393316&state=random_state&session_state=CEwifhoy_x1RJWH-DoV_9Q1yJVNUXV4z5YRGGuXsUvs.39c667f469b8f6585a9f699d0b7d76f3
I need to get the code between "code=" and "&state".
Then put it in the <> part of "grant_type=authorization_code&code=<>&redirect_uri=<>" so I can request a token. This part I can do, I just can't figure out how to get the code out of the URL.
Thanks.
You should just use $_GET environment variable.
All these data after the file address itself (in your case /) and ? sign are GET data.
To retrieve "code" value you should use:
$variable = $_GET['code'];
It's just as simple as that.
For this you can use the $_GET variable. It will become more clear for you if you do:
<?php
print_r($_GET);
?>
Then you can see there is a key "code" in this array. You can get the value of this key like this:
<?php
$code = $_GET['code'];
?>
Use parse_url with a component of PHP_URL_QUERY to get the query string.
Then parse_str to get the particular argument
http://php.net/manual/en/function.parse-url.php
http://php.net/manual/en/function.parse-str.php
can anyone help me to piece together the puzzled I'm facing. Lets say I have url's
/some-work/
/store/bread/alloy/
and in both of these cases I wanna fetch the first part from it. i.e. some-work, store.
Now I've used parse_url(get_permalink()) to get the array of the url and then fetch the path index of the array to fetch the above string. Now I have also checked strstr PHP function, but I am unable to make it work. Can anyone help?
You can use explode, array_filter and current function like as
$url = "http://www.example.com/some-work/";
$extracted = array_filter(explode("/",parse_url($url,PHP_URL_PATH)));
echo current($extracted);//some-work

I can't find a solution for this problem. I have this URL http://examplesite.com/?skill-type=new and I want to get the very last word after the = sign, using PHP only. "skill-type" stays the same all the time Thanks in advance :)
This snippet should do:
$url = 'http://examplesite.com/?skill-type=new';
$skillType = explode('&', parse_url($url, PHP_URL_QUERY))['skill-type'];
Check parse_url for more details.
If you meant that the request comes in to that particular url, just use $_REQUEST['skill-type'] to retrieve the value.
Considering you already have the URL in a variable, let's say
$url = 'http://examplesite.com/?skill-type=new;
One possible way (certainly there are others) would be:
$urlArray = explode('=',$url);
$last = $urlArray[sizeof($urlArray)-1];
Note:
only applicable if you don't know how the URL comes, if you do, consider on using $_GET
Use the PHP $_GET Global Variable
$skill_type = $_GET['skill-type'];
PHP will automatically parse GET variables for you. To access the value of the skill-type variable, you need only use $_GET['skill-type']. For instance:
echo $_GET['skill-type'];
Will display
new
Generate your url by $_SERVER variable and then split it like this
$url = "http://examplesite.com/?skill-type=new";
$array = explode("=", $url);
$last_word = $array[1];
Use substr (url, posstr (url,'=')+1) or if this is the page being loaded $_GET ['skill-type']
I need to extract a variable's value from a string, which happens to be a URL. The string/url is loaded as part of a separate php query, not the url in the browser.
The url's will look like:
index.php?option=com_content&view=article&catid=334:golfeq&id=2773:xcelsiors&Itemid=44
How can I always find & capture the value of the id which in this example is 2773?
I read several examples already, but what I've tried captures the id value of the current page which is being viewed in the browser, and not the URL string.
Thanks
You are looking for a combination or parse_url (which will isolate the query string for you) and parse_str (which will parse the variables and put them into an array).
For example:
$url = 'index.php?option=com_content&view=article&catid=334:golfeq&id=2773:xcelsiors&Itemid=44';
// This parses the url for the query string, and parses the vars from that
// into the array $vars (which is created on the spot).
parse_str(parse_url($url, PHP_URL_QUERY), $vars);
print_r($vars); // see what's in there
// Parse the value "2773:xcelsiors" to isolate the number
$id = reset(explode(':', $vars['id']));
// This will also work:
$id = intval($vars['id']);
echo "The id is $id\n";
See it in action.
You can use parse_str
You can use parse_url to parse URLs!
But you can use, to extract directly the numbers of ID variable:
$url = 'index.php?option=com_content&view=article&catid=334:golfeq&id=2773:xcelsiors&Itemid=44';
$id = preg_replace("/^.*[&?]id=([0-9]+).*$/",'$1',$url);
echo $id;
I've this url:
http://localhost/alignment/?page_id=52&q=2
I want to get the portion: ?page_id=52 , how can I do that?
$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']
or
$url = "http://localhost/alignment/?page_id=52&q=2";
$bits = explode("?", $url);
$querystring = $bits[1]; // this is what you want
but the first one will be much more reliable and is easier. :)
EDIT
if you meant that you just wanted that one variable use:
$_GET['page_id']
This is called a query string. The main portion of the query string is separated by the rest of the URL with a ?. Each argument in the query string is separated by a &.
PHP:
$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
If you want to get the individual pieces, use:
$_GET['page_id']; //etc...
You can get the whole query string with $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'], but you would have to parse out page_id part. If you insist on doing things manually the function parse_str may come in handy.
A better choice would be to just use the predefined $_GET global variable. $_GET['page_id'] would give you value 52.
If you have it as a string, use parse_url. Documentation here. Get the query value of it. or if its current request use $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']
echo parse_url($url,PHP_URL_QUERY);
This should do it:
echo $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
Assign the url to string and then explode() it,
http://php.net/manual/en/function.explode.php, using the ? as a delimiter
