take a part of a URL question

hello.

I was wondering if it's possible to steal a part of the url and place on a page ? let's say the url in queston is "http://mypage.com/ati.php?dat=Murky

can i somehow grab "Murky" out of the url and place it on my page ? for example "you know that Murky is a goon"

is this possible ?

 

Investigate into PHP and the GET method. Something like,

<?php
echo "you know that " . $_GET[dat] . " is a goon";
?>

 

Very good, this will help me as well!

 

You can use rewrite engine to rewrite your:

http://mypage.com/ati.php?dat=Murky

page to

http://mypage.com/ati/Murky.htm

This would work better for SEO.
