Thank you for your help regarding parsing the url (Hey, go figure, they named the function almost exactly the same as my question.).
I am still at sea about getting all the information from the url header. If I leave the brackets empty [e.g. parse_url() ] I get an error saying I have a parameter mismatch. When I fill the brackets with $query_string, I get an answer but it's in the form of an array. Finally when I echo the array, the "query" string echos in the "path" slot. Any ideas? Hugh $p=parse_url($QUERY_STRING); echo $p[host]." 1 ".$p[path]." 2 ".$p[query]." 3 "; ----- Original Message ----- From: "CC Zona" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, February 02, 2002 1:58 PM Subject: [PHP] Re: Address unknown > In article <000e01c1ac31$2cdf6f20$0100007f@localhost>, > [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Hugh Danaher) wrote: > > > Some one please tell me to RTFN!, but first tell me where to look. :-) > > > > I have a page with an image of a map which delivers the following info to the > > address bar of someplace.php. the <img src=image.gif ismap> html code > > delivers the coordinates of the cursor when clicked.
