Carrying referrer data using php?
 

I was using shtml files and <!--#echo var="QUERY_STRING"-->

and it was working just fine, but... how do I do the same with php?

Was using blahblah.html?referrerhere

Need to use blahblah.php?referrerhere

Is there a simple way?

Sorry, it didnt take it, but it was the Echo Variable line

$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] should do the trick, if your URL is:

http://www.somedomain.com/blah.html?hello

then that variable will have:

/blah.html?hello

Actually...

$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]

That will have "hello" in it.

or you simply use blah.php?ref=123 and use $ref in your php file.:2 cents:

be safe and use $_GET['ref'] or $_REQUEST['ref']........however as said before $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] would return everything after ?

Hmm, so... where would I be putting those strings?

As is, I have every link having the join.shtml?referreridhere

the html shows join.shtml?[#echo var="QUERY_STRING"]

and it works pretty well.

Sorry, Im code stupid... and this board doesnt help by jacking your ability to show it either...

I've got a dinner engagement, but afterwards if anyone is available on ICQ, I'd really appreciate it.

echo('join.shtml?' . $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);


That should work fine but then again it's 4/20, who knows if what I say works? :rasta
