URL Parameters

Barrucadu · 08-09-2005, 01:35 AM

How do i get a URL parameter using PHP, I know how to submit one but not how to get it on another page. e.g. on my image hosting site when you click browse it takes you to /Uploads/browseupload.php?file=filename.filextension and all i want to do is be able to use the file parameter to display the image. I have it all worked out except for recieving the parameter.

Use

PHP Code:

  $_GET['url_param_name']

/Uploads/browseupload.php?file=filename.filextension
would be

PHP Code:

  $_GET['file']

You forgot semicolons! Make sure you add those!!

I would use semicolons, but I am not writing a full line of code. Those are just examples

Just for kicks though

PHP Code:

  echo 'Filename Is ' .  $_GET['file'];

=P
