How can I get HOST info from a remote script?

ldelgado

I have this webpage at:

http://www.domainX.com/test.html?id=6

which is calling an external php script with the following tag:

Inside track.php I want to be able to get the HOST + PAGE + QUERY STRING from the FIRST domain but it seems that with $_SESSION["HTTP_HOST"] I can only get the domain where track.php is hosted.

Is there any solution for this?

Thanks!

Hi,
You need to add som othe info in the img src...
something like

 
<img src="http://www.domainXYZ.com/track.php?src=<?=$PHP_SELF?>">

This give you in the track.php the var $src with wanted info...

I hope this helps...

bye bye

I don't what it to become PHP dependent because I want to use this tracking script in cross-platform enviroments.

Well, before pointing out the obvious fact that PHP is a fairly cross-platform language...

What are you using that you would need it to be "cross-platform", or more importantly, not dependant upon PHP.

Are you using ASP, Perl, ColdFusion...maybe Cobol?! 😃 😃

Tell us what you've got, and we'll probably have an easier time answering this.
