parse_url for host

[[deleted]]

I'm trying to parse a url to get the host.

This is what I have tried.

$PHP_SELF = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
	$url = parse_url('$PHP_SELF');
	$host = $url['host'];
	echo $host;

The error I get is:
Notice: Undefined index: host in F:\Dev.Work\crc\includes\url.php on line 4

It has not worked. I have globals turned off, but I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it.

I'm not sure if this is the problem, but I don't think you can redifne $PHP_SELF. So maybe take out the first line there and see what happens. Again I'm not sure if that will help or not.

You need to redefine PHP_SELF if globals are off which in my case they are.

I figured out the problem. All I needed was $_SERVER['Server_Name'].
