Get the GET variables from a URL String

Question

Hey, say I have a url just being passed through my php is there any easy way to get some GET variables that are being passed through it? It\'s not the actual url of the page

Answer 1

I'd use something like:

preg_match_all('/(\?|&)([^=]+=[^&]*)/', $string , $matches);

then

print_r($matches[2]);
/*
Array
(
    [0] => url=var
    [1] => file_id=var
    [2] => test=var
)
*/

Hope it works 4 u.
