Hey, I was wondering if anyone could tell me the name of the function that allows you to have like a variable on the end or ur url (eg. http://www.domainhere.com/profile.php?id=JosiaMFire2) - variable would be "JosiaMFire2".

It's not a function, it's the GET superglobal array.

Code: Select all

<?php
$id = $_GET['id'];

// For a little cleaner approach
$id = isset($_GET['id']) ? $_GET['id'] : '';
?>
