How to get current PHP page name [duplicate]
I've a file called demo.php
where I don't have any GET variables in the URL, so if I want to hide a button if am on this page I can't use something like this:
if($_GET['name'] == 'value') {
//Hide
} else {
//show
}
So I want something like
$filename = //get file name
if($filename == 'file_name.php') {
//Hide
} else {
//show
}
I don't want to declare unnecessary GET variables just for doing this...
You can use basename()
and $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']
to get current page file name
echo basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); /* Returns The Current PHP File Name */
$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"];
will give you the current filename and its path, but basename(__FILE__)
should give you the filename that it is called from.
So
if(basename(__FILE__) == 'file_name.php') {
//Hide
} else {
//show
}
should do it.
In your case you can use __FILE__
variable !
It should help.
It is one of predefined.
