I have these urls from a web log:
http://www.domain.com/page?s=194&client=151678&m=a4a&v=1&g=54 http://www.domain.com/page?s=51&client=617171&m=b4z&v=8&g=97 How can I convert this URL in an array in PHPso i will have an array like this
array( 'page' => array( 's' => 194, 'client' => 151678 'm' => 'a4a', 'v' => 1, 'g' => 54 ) etc.. ) then later I can loop to that array to find duplicates or validate the information correctly.
PHP has a native function for that, the parse_str function. You can use it like:
parse_str($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'], $outputArray); This will do just what you need.
There may be a better way to do this but this is what I came up with.
<?php $url = 'http://www.domain.com/page?s=194&client=151678&m=a4a&v=1&g=54'; $remove_http = str_replace('http://', '', $url); $split_url = explode('?', $remove_http); $get_page_name = explode('/', $split_url[0]); $page_name = $get_page_name[1]; $split_parameters = explode('&', $split_url[1]); for($i = 0; $i < count($split_parameters); $i++) { $final_split = explode('=', $split_parameters[$i]); $split_complete[$page_name][$final_split[0]] = $final_split[1]; } var_dump($split_complete); ?> With parse_url() you can parse the URL to an associative array. In the result array you get amongst others the query part. Then you can use parse_str() for parsing the query part to your new array.
Assuming from your question that path will always be /page, the array containing the parsed URLs cannot have multiple page indexes so you should use numeric indexes.
Try this:
$urls_parsed = array(); foreach ($url_strings as $url_string) { $url = parse_url($url_string); $urls_parsed[] = parse_str($url['query']); } $url_strings is an array containing all the URLs you want to parse in string format. $urls_parsed is the resulting array containing the URLs parsed in the format you requested.
Use parse_url function like
<?php $url = 'http://username:password@hostname/path?arg=value#anchor'; print_r(parse_url($url)); echo parse_url($url, PHP_URL_PATH); ?> Which will give you the following array output
Array ( [scheme] => http [host] => hostname [user] => username [pass] => password [path] => /path [query] => arg=value [fragment] => anchor ) And from the query you can easily split it as to (key,value) paira. Hope this helps.:)
You could do:
function convertUrlToArray($url){ $url = str_replace("http://www.domain.com/page?", "", $url); $urlExploded = explode("&", $url); $return = array(); foreach ($urlExploded as $param){ $explodedPar = explode("=", $param); $return[$explodedPar[0]] = $explodedPar[1]; } return $return; } $url1 = convertUrlToArray("http://www.domain.com/page?s=51&client=617171&m=b4z&v=8&g=97"); var_dump($url1); example here http://codepad.org/KIDKPzaU
