    sure, if you're looking for what I think you are, you can use $_GET.

    For example:
    URL: http://www.abc.com/index.php?m=ss
    or:
    URL: http://www.abc.com/?m=ss

    <?php
    $graph = $_GET['m'];
    //result would be $graph = ss
    ?>

    'm' could be whatever you choose as long as both params on URL and $_GET match

    if you wana send values from one page to another via url you can send them like that

    URL : http://www.xyz.com/some_page.php?id=233&name=mike

    now you can catch the values from the url for later use like this


    <?php
    $member_id= $_GET['id'];
    $member_name = $_GET['name'];

    ?>
