Getting a Query String from URL

I'm a PHP novice and was wondering how, in PHP, I can quickly accomplish the same thing as I would in ASP using:

<%=Request.QueryString%>

Basically capturing the variables at the end of a URL. For example, with this:

I would want to capture the "s=&forumid=12". Or better yet, just capture the "forumid=12".

Thanks for any help.

One of PHP\'s double-edge sword is that you don\'t have to do any special function calls to get the variables out of the URL.

to get the forumid out of this in your PHP page, all you need to do is treat forumid as a variable.

For example, if all you wanted to do was print the forum id, you would just need to do something like this:

<?PHP
printf(\"$forumid\");
?>

and it would echo out \"12\"

I hope this all makes sense

Awesome. I was able to adapt that to what I needed to do. Thanks a bunch.
