getting substring name

[Mythri]

Hi,

I am using `$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ;` to get the complete URL address, but in that i want to take only the half, example in `$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ;` i get http://www.mystore.website.com/index...klfjdskldfd=id...
but i want to take only till http://www.mystore.website.com, how can i do it?

In PHP is there any function called LastIndex and Substing to use? I am confused. Please help me.

[Mythri]

$myURL = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
		$lastIndex = lastIndexOf($myURL,'/');
		$myURL = substr($myURL,0,$lastIndex);
		//echo $myURL;

I am using it like this. is it right?
Nothing is happening

Hey, sorry for the post. I got it resolved. I was supposed to use

$lastIndex = strrpos($myURL, '/', 0);

instead of

$lastIndex = lastIndexOf($myURL,'/');

.

Yes, but.
You'll need to determine if the results of the strrpos are valid or not. Use an if check for that:

PHP Code:

if (false !== $lastIndex)
{
    $myURL = substr($myURL, 0, $lastIndex);
} 


Since 0 is a valid offset position, you must check for identical to false.
