I do not want to display the ?=data when I echo

I am using the following code to grab the url:

function curPageURL() {
 $pageURL = 'http';
 if ($_SERVER["HTTPS"] == "on") {$pageURL .= "s";}
 $pageURL .= "://";
 if ($_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"] != "80") {
  $pageURL .= $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].":".$_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
 } else {
  $pageURL .= $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
 }
 return $pageURL;
}

Code (markup):

Then I can echo on my page the url by using:

<?php echo curPageURL();?>

Code (markup):

But I just realized that I need to modify this because if someone comes to my site with an for example mydomain/mypage.php?=data

Then the url displayed on my page displays:

mydomain/mypage.php?=data

I do not want to display the ?=data I really do not want to display the ? and including anything at all after it.

That "data" part could be anything so I only want to display mydomain/whatevermypageis.php and nothing else

How could I do this?

I appreciate your help

Thanks

This one will deal more on .htaccess, mod_rewrite.

 

Thanks for your reply.

Yes I can see how that would work but have places in my page where I do need to echo the whole string with the ?data= on the end.

I am really looking for a way to echo the url but a cleaned up version of the url. Is it possible to strip ? and everything after it? when I echo the url?

Thanks

 

instead of strip, use parse_url

 

That's cool, just what I needed, thanks for your help.

Mike
