As a brief aside - putting your message in the message body instead of in the subject makes it less confusing to try and work out what the question/answer/anything is?

What filename are you looking for specifically? The scripts name:

Code: Select all

$_SERVERї'PHP_SELF']
Mac

thank you

WOW!!! It's worked.

Indeed, I have a PHP script + mySQL on an online photo gallery where I set each photo's filename as variable. Now, I needed to hard-coded each photo's filename so that it will do all the things following automatically.

Now I can using the thing you teached me + some string manipulation (to get rig of the "/") to complete my job.

Thanks very much!!!
