Last page visited question

[micmac]

Hi all,
Is there a way of sending the value of the last page visited...ie. first_page.php?

Cheers,
micmac

assuming that you are not interested in HTTP_REFERER, this is what i thought of for *nix to just get the page.ext... maybe someone else has a better idea.

$page = split("/", getenv(SCRIPT_NAME));
$n = count($page)-1;
$page = $page[$n];
$page = split("\.", $page, 2);
$ext = $page[1];
$page = $page[0];
$script = "$page.$ext";

note that $script will be first_page.php so, if you want, just dump $script in a session.

You can use a session and always update a session variable with $SERVER['PHP_SELF'] or simply print $SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'].
