using php self in html iframe

[ketanco]

Hello, I have a main page say main.php that brings up a poll program with iframe. The poll file is called pollq.php.

Main page brings the polll like this:
<iframe src="poll/pollq.php" frameborder="0">
</iframe>

In pollq, I have the following code, to obtain the page name. $kat below equals poll.

$a= $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$aa=explode("/",$a);

$kat=$aa[1];

My question is, when I bring up the pollq in main.php, I want the php_self to bring up main page's name. Not pollq. But it still brings up pollq. When I included pollq with php include command in main page, it was working. But that wasnt good because everytime I hit submit button it used to refresh the whole page which I didnt want. So iframe works, but when I put pollq in it, php self brings pollq. not main. How can I make pollq bring up main pages name?

The page in the iframe is, from the server's view, completely separate from the page that contains the iframe. Perhaps you could include a reference to the main page in the URL via a query string value, then reference that in the iframe page via $_GET?

Maybe you could pass the main page name in the iframe src.
eg
$a= $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$aa=explode("/",$a);

$kat=$aa[1];
<iframe src="poll/pollq.php?page=<?php echo $kat ?>" frameborder="0">
</iframe>
