Re: ? in URLS.

Everything after the question mark is a query string. Say you have this... http://www.mydomain.com/index.php?var1=value1&var2=value2&var3=something-else to access these values in your script... $_GET['var1'] $_GET['var2'] $_GET['var3'] In other words, if I want to print out the value of var2 on the page.... echo ( "This is var2 : " . $_GET['var2'] ); Will print this out to the browser.... This is var2 : value2 HTH Simon Angell wrote:

Hi All. I am currently playing with sripts, and have come across a problem, that i can't slove. (i am a novice - lol). The script requires a URL to grab data from. The URL has a ? in it, and testing the script it grabs the base data of the URL, but not the essential data i need, which is only brought up with what comes after the ? in the URL. now i figure it has something to do with the ? in the URL but i can't seem to fix it myself.
