Current url

[ft310]

This might be the dumb one for the day but, I need a PHP function (or
whatever) similar to the JavaScript "self.locat ion" in PHP.

Will someone please put me out of my misery.

Thanks

Look at the header() function in the php documentation. A call like
header("Locatio n: http://example.com/mypage.php?etc" ) will cause an
instant redirect to that page.

If you want the script to know the URL of the page that called it, use
the predefined variable $_SERVER[] - see

http://us.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php

For example, $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] in a script at the address
http://example.com/mypage.php?etc would be /mypage.php/etc

Hope that helps. -A

Be aware that $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] can be tweaked (since it contains GET
parameters), thus if you want to be safe you should not use it for
generation of <form action='"'>...
