Re: RE: [PHP] checking multiple URL parameters
Hi, How can I get multiple values from a variable (from URL) and parse them into an array? For example: example.php?graphArray=20,35,84,21,23,22,24,95 parse_str is for multiple variables, not multiple values of one variable. PLEASE HELP!!!

RE: [PHP] checking multiple URL parameters
I could have sworn that there was a function that dropped ALL GET values
into an associative array. Kind of the inverse of http_build_query.
At any rate, you can keep doing (isset($_REQUEST['mov']) AND
isset($_REQUEST['year'])) and such. Is that your question? How do you
do AND and OR operations?

Subject: [PHP] checking multiple URL parameters
Hi there, I am currently using the following code to display content
based on the URL parameters
?php
if (isset($_REQUEST['mov'])) {
$movie = ($_REQUEST['mov'])
?
HTML CONTENT
?php
}
else {
?
OTHER HTML CONTENT
?php
}
?
now what I need to do is modify the code so that the script checks 2
URL parameters, and has 2 variables defined (from the URL
parameter)...
So I need to also check if $_REQUEST['year'] is set as well as the
original (both need to be set to get the first HTML content)
AND I also
need to set the variable of $year = ($_REQUEST['year']
direction?

That's it! Thanks! Beautiful! :) Worth noting is the extract() function mentioned at the bottom of that page too, used for importing any array into the global space. Thank you very much, Andrew.

think I saw a built-in function that did it as well.
I think parse_str is what you're looking for:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.parse-str.php
i.e. parse_str(getenv('QUERY_STRING'))

PHP can be run from the command line, in which case the GET and POST

advantage of Pear's DataObjects when I need to do a flat file data
load. Also, imagine if you had a database of URL's that you wanted to
dissect for it's component information?
That being said, I'm not aware of a PHP function that performs this
operation for you. I remember writing a similar one in Perl many
years ago, that was something like:
(sorry for the pseudocode, I figure completely wrong is better than
almost right)
array = regexp_split (/[=]/, uri) // where uri is everything after the ?
for (i = 0; i count(array); i += 2) {
url_var[array[i]] = array[i+1] // You may want to do a urldecode here
}
I believe php lets you name vars by adding an additional $ before the
name, such as:
$varname = thing;
$$varname = data;
echo $thing // Produces 'data'
This may be a good starting point.

This makes absolutely no sense to me. What do you mean by submitted? How would a PHP script be executed at all if the browser never sends a request? Hah.. I should just let this all go, go home, get some sleep, and start confusing people again tomorrow, but I want to clarify a little bit. Imaging you have a URL in a string and you want to find out what parameters are going to be passed to the script if the URL were to be called. ?php $targeturl = http://www.server.com/script.php?somevar=somevalsomevar2=someval2;; ?

Re: [PHP] checking multiple URL parameters
same way, if i understand your questoin...
if your url looks like this
sometestpage.php?mov=somethingyear=1999
- the queries are seperated by the '' char..
then
$_REQUEST will have both mov and year elements in it
so just as $_REQUEST['mov'] worked, so would $_REQUEST['year']
