<?php echo $_SELF;?> ?Please don't top-post [1]. This will not work. $_SELF isn't even a defined variable, unless you defined it yourself. PHP works on the server, *before* anything is sent on the client, so it has no way to know client-side things like what browser window you are in. You could place the value in a hidden form field with JS and then post back to the server, but something tells me you may be approaching the problem in the wrong way. Without more details I can't suggest alternatives, though.
