How do I get the base URL with PHP

0 votes

I am using XAMPP on Windows Vista. In my development, I have http://127.0.0.1/test_website/.

How do I get http://127.0.0.1/test_website/ with PHP?

I tried something like these, but none of them worked.

echo dirname(__FILE__)
or
echo basename(__FILE__);
etc.

Hello @kartik,

Try this:

<?php echo "http://" . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>

If you want using https, you can use this:

function url(){
  return sprintf(
    "%s://%s%s",
    isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] != 'off' ? 'https' : 'http',
    $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'],
    $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']
  );
}

echo url();
#=> http://127.0.0.1/foo

Hope this helps!!

Thank You!!
