How to get pframeters from URL string

[leo]

Sorry for a stupid question.
I cannot understand how can I get parameters'
names and values from the URL string
(... /myPage.html?param1=xxxx&param2=yyyy&param3=zzzz)
using myPage' s PHP and/or JavaScript code.

:sad:

Thanks!

for your example,
the varaible $_GET['param1'] will equal "xxxx"
the variable $_GET['param2'] will equal "yyyy"
the variable $_GET['param3'] will equal "zzzz"

Virtuoso is right!

But note!
If you send exactly the same url through form with post method, then you´ll catch your pamameters with $_POST!

Example:

Code: Select all

<form name="f" method="post" action="myPage.html">
   <input name="param1" value="xxxx" type="text">
   <input name="param2" value="yyyy" type="text">
   <input name="param3" value="zzzz" type="text">

   <input name="submit" value="Send" type="submit">
</form>

Then you´ll 'get' them with:

$_POST['param1'] equal to 'xxxx'
$_POST['param2'] equal to 'yyyy'
$_POST['param3'] equal to 'zzzz'


So... $_GET won´t work here unless you have the get method in your form!

it'll work if you have it in the link URL. you dont necessary have to have it in a form. You can also put it in the "action" part of the form.

That´s what i´ve said

You can only get it from the url if you have it in the url.
Using a form, you can only access it from the url if you don´t specify any method. Otherwise the sent data will be 'invisible'!
