Getting full URL

treeleaf20

I'm trying to redirect a user back to the webpage they are on after they submit a form. I do this using the following code:

echo "<form action=\"http://www.website.com/~web/file.php?action=new&redirecturl=".$PHP_SELF."\" method=\"post\">";

If the URL is: website.com/url.php?id=1 this will only get website.com/url.php

Is there anyway to get the id=1 as well?

Thanks.

$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];

That should return it.

Also, you could try using,

$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; instead.

What if there are multiple things like id=1&message=2?

To get the actual URL I do:

$querystring = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
echo $querystring;
if ($querystring == ""){
$url = $PHP_SELF;
//echo $url;
}else{
$url = "".$PHP_SELF."?$querystring";
//echo $url;
}

This shows the correct query string.

The form is now:

echo "<form action=\"http://www.website.com/~web/file.php?action=new&redirecturl=$url\" method=\"post\">";

To get the URL from the form I do:

$redircturl = $_GET['redirecturl'];
echo "<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='1;URL=$redirecturl'>";

It seems to work fine until it gets to the part where it does the actual redirecting. When it gets here it it drops the second variable in the query. Any way how to solve that?

for one, you should be using & instead of &.

$redircturl = $_GET['redirecturl'];
echo "<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='1;URL=$redirecturl'>";

Check your variables.

$redircturl = $_GET['redirecturl'];
echo "<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='1;URL=$redirecturl'>";

I tried both things and it still drops the second variable. Any other suggestions?
