I have my htaccess redirecting to a error404.php but I want that PHP file to be able to extract the original url parameters.
For example:
http://mywebsite.com/unknownfile.php?param1=value1¶m2=value2
I've tried $_GET['param1']
but that's empty. The $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']
just shows error404.php
Many thanks in advance.
You can access original URL via $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]
.
For example: requesting URL /hihi/meow?key=rumba
which does not exists. The $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]
will have that string, which you can parse with parse_url() function to split into parts and use other functions (like explode()
to get to individual query strung parameters.
If you redirect this info will only be present in $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']
