Getting Current URL

[dazza76]

Does anyone know or have a script that reads the url from the address bar.
Because i wan't to use it to create a 404 page and depending on the wrong address it sends it to the correct location.

$_SERVER["SCRIPT_URI"]

stick this one to it for any query string: $QUERY_STRING

I'm having the same problem and the above solution doesn't work on my system. What else can be done?

[_SuperString]

try these ones.

getenv ("SCRIPT_NAME"); // will get the current script
getenv ("QUERY_STRING"); // will get any querystrings

Problem with this solution is that it get the current script.

I really need the URL in the browser because it's a poorly designed (graphics and technics) website. Uses a lot of javascript and SSI.
I need to include a "variable document" wich is always located in the categories directory.
like www.somedomain.com/news/variable.doc

if i click on the category news the locationbar in the browser contains http://www.somedomain.com/news/
and with PHP i would like to add the variable.doc to the location to include that file

HTTP_REFERER gives me just www.somedomain.com
I need the next step
