How to pull your URL into an Include? - GoFuckYourself.com

crazytrini85 · 07-26-2010, 01:33 AM

I can do the date, time, IP address and all of that but have never been able to pull my URL into it.

Example, in my generic footer include I call the date and then the copyright info, but would also like to add the domain to it so I could have a totally generic footer include that I can drag and drop into any site.

Thanks ya.

If you want just to show your site's url just use

Code:

echo $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];

but I'm not sure if I got you right: if you want to pull content from other site into your footer

PHP Code:


			
<?php include('http://www.yoursite.com/site.php');?>

but if your site is not allowing remote includes you should add this to the .htaccess

PHP Code:


			
allow_url_include 1

or, if you prefer

PHP Code:


			
allow_url_include on

if that is prohibited by your hosting provider, you should use cURL
(you can contact me and I can write that for you)

not really wise to allow it for a server if you share it, but if its just your box, im pretty sure its ok

it's bad idea, use full path instead:
include('/home/bluh/bluh/footer.php');

Why is it bad idea for not using full path? I've always used relative paths. Am I asking for trouble?

And thanks to the first poster, it is "echo $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];" I was looking for.

I meant instead of a url, relative path is fine too...
