The variable $QUERY_STRING will have everything which is passed after the ?.
For Example,
www.yourdomain.com/index.php?ShowIntroduction
$QUERY_STRING will be "ShowIntroduction".
Another useful one, is $PATH_INFO.
You can have things such as: www.yourdomain.com/help.php/ProductB
and in that case, $PATH_INFO would be "/ProductB". You can create some
useful mixes betweeen $PATH_INFO, and $QUERY_STRING, or even with PATH_INFO
& the other regular variables... I find this pretty useful, even in for
processing and stuff...
I make my script like this, for example:
swith($PATH_INFO){
case "/process":
DO SOMETHING WITH THE FORM DATA....
break;
default:
?>
<form action=http://yourdomain.com/YourScript.php/process
method=get>
BLAH
BLAH
BLAH
<?
}
I also find it very useful when you want to have, for example: One file with
"Company Info", but this info can be subdivided into different pages, such
as "Company Info: What we Do?", "Company Info: Who we Are?","Company Info:
Where we are located", and then, from a menu you can access:
domain.com/company.php/What domain.com/company.php/Who or
domain.com/company.php/Where...
Hope this helps,
Cheers,
Roy
