$_server['php_self'];

[NZ_Kiwis]

I have this code

$first = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];

On this page the URL is
members/forum/addpost.php?main_id=1

but the code only gets "/members/forum/addpost.php"

Why?? and how can i fix this???

[sys4dm1n]

what about posting more code so more people can get a feel for what is going on?

$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] will give you ?var=foo e.t.c..

okay cool as...

Skull you code is what i was looking for and it worked well..

on page1.php I have this on a form which is taken to page2.php

$first = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];

But on page2.php I have this..

<meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="0;url=addpost.php?<?php echo $first; ?>"> 

however back on the first page i do a

echo $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; 

but I don't get the page.php which is were the user has come from... i guess this is because a user has not clicked a link.. any ideas how to fix this???

what do you get when you put in $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; ?
