Re: Finding the? in $REQUEST_URI?page=blah

i'd use split, to split the value up into an array: if this is your url $url = "/pages/error.php?/pages/login.php?user=scott"; and use this code: $thing = split('\?', $url); print $thing[0] ." <BR>\n "; print $thing[1] ." <BR>\n "; print $thing[2] ." <BR>\n "; output will be: /pages/error.php /pages/login.php user=scottx ----- Original Message ----- From: "James, Yz" <liljim@btconnect.com> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Friday, February 16, 2001 5:57 PM Subject: [PHP] Finding the? in $REQUEST_URI?page=blah > I really wouldn't ask this if I wasn't completely exausted, but the last > thing I feel like doing just now is reading up on this when someone can > probably answer it in a matter of seconds..... > > OK, I've an error handling page.
