Sometimes, you might want to get the current page URL that is shown in the browser URL window. For example if you want to let your visitors submit a blog post to Digg you need to get that same exact URL. There are plenty of other reasons as well. Here is how you can do that.<\/p>\n
Add the following code to a page:<\/p>\n
[code language=”php”]
\nfunction curPageURL() {
\n $pageURL = ‘http’;
\n if ($_SERVER["HTTPS"] == "on") {$pageURL .= "s";}
\n $pageURL .= ":\/\/";
\n if ($_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"] != "80") {
\n $pageURL .= $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].":".$_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
\n } else {
\n $pageURL .= $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
\n }
\n return $pageURL;
\n}
\n[\/code]<\/p>\n
You can now get the current page URL using the line:<\/p>\n
[code language=”php”]
\necho curPageURL();
\n[\/code]<\/p>\n
Sometimes it is needed to get the page name only. The following example shows how to do it:<\/p>\n
[code language=”php”]
\nfunction curPageName() {
\n return substr($_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"],strrpos($_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"],"\/")+1);
\n}<\/p>\n
echo "The current page name is ".curPageName();
\n[\/code]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
