Get current filename with URL parameters

You can append the query string after you get it as an environment variable:

$myurl = basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']) . "?" . $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];

If you need to consider the possibility of no query string, add a conditional test:

$myurl = strlen($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']) ? basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])."?".$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] : basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);

Get only filename from url in php without any variable values which exist in the url

This should work:

echo basename($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '?' . $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);

But beware of any malicious parts in your URL.

How to get file name from url without $_GET variable?

I will follow parse_url() like below (easy to understand):-

<?php
$url = 'http://localhost/mc/site-01-up/index.php?c=lorem-ipsum';

$url=   parse_url($url);
print_r($url); // to check what parse_url() will outputs
$url_path = explode('/',$url['path']); // explode the path part
$file_name =  $url_path[count($url_path)-1]; // get last index value which is your desired result

echo $file_name;
?>

Output:- https://eval.in/606839

Note:- tested with your given URL. Check for other type of URL's at your end. thanks.

Get file name of a URL in PHP

<?php
  header('Content-Type: text/plain');

  $curl = curl_init('http://localhost/fakefile.php');

  curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);
  curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
  curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'HEAD');

  if (($response = curl_exec($curl)) !== false)
  {
    if (curl_getinfo($curl, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE) == '200')
    {
      var_dump($response);

      $reDispo = '/^Content-Disposition: .*?filename=(?<f>[^\s]+|\x22[^\x22]+\x22)\x3B?.*$/m';
      if (preg_match($reDispo, $response, $mDispo))
      {
        $filename = trim($mDispo['f'],' ";');

        echo "Filename Found: $filename";
      }
    }
  }

  curl_close($curl);

That would parse the Content-Disposition line for the filename=foo.bar information (assuming it does render the file directly out using this method.)

get file name for url php

I think this is what you want:

<?php

$page = basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
?>

<div id="language">
    <a href="../../<?php echo $page;?>" class="lang">EN</a>
    <a class="lang" href="<?php echo $page;?>">DE</a>
    <a class="lang" href="../pl/<?php echo $page;?>">PL</a>
</div>

You would save the current file name in the $page variable. Then echo it out and replace index.php in your links.

How do I get a file name from a full path with PHP?

You're looking for basename.

The example from the PHP manual:

<?php
$path = "/home/httpd/html/index.php";
$file = basename($path);         // $file is set to "index.php"
$file = basename($path, ".php"); // $file is set to "index"
?>
