If X contains Y... what's the opperator for contains?

I know it has to be waaay super easy, but I can't find the opperator for "contains" in the docu via php.net. Searched the forum, no luck.

if($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] -contains- "blahblah.html")
	{
		$spit_it_out = "blahblah2.html";
	}

Code (php):

 

I don't wuite understand the question, but this might work:

$ref=@$HTTP_REFERER;
Switch($ref){
	case "http://www.yoursiteurl.com/music":
		header("Location: http://www.yoursiteurl.com/music/sent.html");
		exit;
		break;	
	case "http://www.yoursiteurl.com/movies":
		header("Location: http://www.yoursiteurl.com/movies/sent.html");
		exit;
		break;
	case "http://www.yoursiteurl.com/cars":
		header("Location: http://www.yoursiteurl.com/cars/sent.html");
		exit;
		break;
}

Code (markup):

another way of doing it would be to put a hidden input with the URL as its value, and when the user submits the form you could just check the value of that field and redirect to the appropriate page.

 

      if(eregi("blahblah.html",$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']))

          {
 
              $spit_it_out = "blahblah2.html";
 
          } 

PHP:

 

I edited the OP to clarify the question a little better. I don't want to use full URLs, basically all I need is the refering page, not the path.

I'll explore that, it's probably a lot easier/more stable.

 

try the strstr and strpos functions

 

wouldn`t it be easier with eregi() function ?

 

Simplest indeed is strpos, which will return false if it's not in there.

I use this wrapper function for this:

<?php
function str_contains($haystack, $needle, $ignoreCase = false) {
   if ($ignoreCase) {
       $haystack = strtolower($haystack);
       $needle  = strtolower($needle);
   }
   $needlePos = strpos($haystack, $needle);
   return ($needlePos === false ? false : ($needlePos+1));
}
?>

PHP:

That way, in your example, it's literally:

if(str_contains($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], "blahblah.html") {
$spit_it_out = "blahblah2.html";
}
