Easy question I think

zleviticus

Ok I have an easy question I think But I can't figure it out.. I am probably looking over the obvious but anyways

I want to get the current url.. that is all... I want to be able to use Parse_Url() but I need to put the current url in it...

I know this is probably to easy for the board but I figure someone would know the answer.. 🙂

<script language="javascript">
alert(window.location);
document.write("<form><input type='hidden' name='currURL' value='" + window.location + "'></form>");

this will alert the location and write it to a hidden field. Hope this gives you some ideas. When php runs there really isn't a current url, the php is creating it.

If you are looking for ideas about referrer or the previous url have a look at some of the tutorials.

When i use the above code (php version) i get an unidentified index error.. so I guess it is not.. here is more information i should have included in the original post...

I have a url

let say:

http://www.something.com/index.php#5

I need to parse the 5.

I am adding it to someone elses code so what i have tries does not work because of the way it is coded...
