Variable thourgh url

[dan2158]

Once you sent variables via the url e.g. www.someurl.com/script.php?variable1=value1

Does this variable have to be set in the original page sending the variable and how do I access this variable from the script receiving it?

I'll appreciate any help.

Thanks Very Much,
Dan

www.someurl.com/script.php?variable1=value1&variable2=value2

I have just assigned and created two variables.

variable1 which has a value of value1
and
variable2 which has a value of value2

This is equvalent to doing this in your script:

$variable1 = "value1";
$variable2 = "value2";

You don't need to do this since they are already defined in the url. To access the variable, you need to use the superglobal $_GET (an array, containing all the variables in the GET [url] method).

$_GET['variable1']

and

$_GET['variable2']
