Urls into variables

Frihost Forum Index -> Scripting -> Php and MySQL

i have a site

www.mysite.com/index.php?email=something@wat.com

how do i get the email places into a variable

is it like this?

Code:

$sentto=urlemail

or something else???

Basically just use the $_GET array. To access to specified value on the URL, just use $_GET["email"].

When your PHP script gets control, the parameters in the request string are already in a variable. This variable is the predefined superglobal array $_GET.

to use it directly, you have to set register_globals as 'on' in php.ini, but that isn't recommended for security and portability purposes. As for ur query, hexkid and yjwong have already cleared it Very Happy

Very Happy

frihost servers have register_globals turned off (which is good). you need to use...

Code:

$sentto = $_GET['urlemail'];

hope that helps.
