Get URL from address bar - PHP

Get URL from address bar - PHP

 The following code is used to get full url address by using php.

<?php

$url="http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

echo $url;

?>

Notes:

 Here we are using 2 functions in php to get full url from address bar.

1. $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']

2. $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']

$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] - This function will show only server name.

$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] - This function will show you the path to file of your url.

 When you run $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];  for this website you'll get result "www.techniqzone.blogspot.in" only, no "http://" no "/Get URL from address bar - PHP"

<?php 

$server=$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];

echo $server;

?>

Output is "www.techniqzone.blogspot.in".

This script "$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']" display the result like below.

no "http://" and no "www.techniqzone.blogspot.in

Example:

<?php

$request_url=$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

echo $request_url;

?>

Output of $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] is "/Get URL from address bar - PHP"

If you want to get full URL from this site you, we have to use (.) to connect 2 functions together and create http:// by yourself.

<?php

$url="http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

echo $url;

?>
