note 85276 added to function.parse-url

my function catch the url written on the browser by the user and does the same thing of parse_url. but better, I think. I don't like parse_url because it says nothing about elements that it doesn't find in the url. my function instead return an empty string. <?php function get_url() { $arr = array(); $uri = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; // query $x = array_pad( explode( '?', $uri ), 2, false ); $arr['query'] = ( $x[1] )? $x[1] : '' ; // resource $x = array_pad( explode( '/', $x[0] ), 2, false ); $x_last = array_pop( $x ); if( strpos( $x_last, '.' ) === false ) { $arr['resource'] = ''; $x[] = $x_last; } else { $arr['resource'] = $x_last; } // path $arr['path'] = implode( '/', $x ); if( substr( $arr['path'], -1 ) !== '/' ) $arr['path'] .= '/'; // domain $arr['domain'] = $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']; // scheme $server_prt = explode( '/', $_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'] ); $arr['scheme'] = strtolower( $server_prt[0] ); // url $arr['url'] = $arr['scheme'].'://'.$arr['domain'].$uri; return $arr; } ?> PS: I found working with explode is faster than using preg_match (I tryed with getmicrotime function and 'for' cycles). PPS: I used array_pad to prevent any notice. ---- Server IP: 80.241.173.254 Probable Submitter: 85.18.136.71 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.parse-url.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/85276 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85276/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85276/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85276/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85276/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85276/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85276/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85276 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/85276 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
