PHP通过URL传递参数

Question

I want to know how I can pass parameters between pages through the URL without having to add variables eg:

mydomain.com/file.php?var1=val1&var2=val2&...varN=valN

I want to use it as follows:

mydomain.com/file.php?val1-val2-...-valN

I also see in some website the URL is in the following format

mydomain.com/file/####

which redirects to another page without changing the URL as if this is the URL to the file.

Answer 1

You should use .htaccess

Here's an example:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^([0-9-_]+)/([a-zA-Z0-9-_]+)/?$ index.php?var1=$1&var2=$2 [NC,L]

This basically means that if the URL is formatted according to the regular expressions above (number - slash - alphanumeric,dashes or underscores) than the content should be displayed from index.php while passing the file two parameters called var1 and var2, var1 having the value of the number and the second having the value of what's after the first slash.

Example:

mysite.com/20/this_is_a_new_article/

Would actually mean

mysite.com?var1=20&var2=this_is_a_new_article

Of course, in your index.php file you can simply take the values using

$var1 = $_GET['var1'];
$var2 = $_GET['var2'];

Cheers!

Your third example is an example of how REST identifies a server side resource. What you are talking about here sounds very much like REST will do what you want. I would suggest starting here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer#RESTful_web_services).
