how to reformat to get proper info into table

I have the following code on my page:

$page = $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']; // gets current url

this is part of a INSERT INTO mysql/php script.

when the table gets populated, the entire url string is there:
/home/com/sitename/html/secure/sales2.php

I would like it to read: sales2.php

How would I change the syntax to eliminate all the other information?

thanks!!!!

Use

$_PAGE = $_SERVER['SCRIPT_URL'];

This should give you just the pagename not the full path

If I understand what you're asking, you want it to show only "sales.php",
right? If so:

$_PAGE=basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_URL']);


Gary

create a new page on your server, and add the following to the page body

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Then open the page in the same directory as your other page. At the bottom
the server variables are displayed, which can vary between servers, and you
can then pick the appropriate one that does what you want.
