I\'m trying to pass a URL as a url parameter in php but when I try to get this parameter I get nothing
I\'m using the following url form:
http://loc
Whomever gets nothing back, I think he just has to enclose the result in html tags,
Like this:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<?php
echo $_GET['link'];
?>
<body>
</html>
$_GET
is not a function or language construct—it's just a variable (an array). Try:
<?php
echo $_GET['link'];
In particular, it's a superglobal: a built-in variable that's populated by PHP and is available in all scopes (you can use it from inside a function without the global keyword).
Since the variable might not exist, you could (and should) ensure your code does not trigger notices with:
<?php
if (isset($_GET['link'])) {
echo $_GET['link'];
} else {
// Fallback behaviour goes here
}
Alternatively, if you want to skip manual index checks and maybe add further validations you can use the filter extension:
<?php
echo filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'link', FILTER_SANITIZE_URL);
Last but not least, you can use the null coalescing operator (available since PHP/7.0) to handle missing parameters:
echo $_GET['link'] ?? 'Fallback value';
Use this:
$parameter = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
echo $parameter;
Or just use:
$parameter = $_GET['link'];
echo $parameter ;
The accepted answer is good. But if you have a scenario like this:
http://www.mydomain.me/index.php?state=California.php#Berkeley
You can treat the named anchor as a query string like this:
http://www.mydomain.me/index.php?state=California.php&city=Berkeley
Then, access it like this:
$Url = $_GET['state']."#".$_GET['city'];
$Query_String = explode("&", explode("?", $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])[1] );
var_dump($Query_String)
Array ( [ 0] => link=www.google.com )
Please post your code,
<?php
echo $_GET['link'];
?>
or
<?php
echo $_REQUEST['link'];
?>
do work...
