I have an HTML form field $_POST["url"]
, having some URL strings as the value.
Example values are:
https://example.com/test/1234?email=xyz@test.com https://example.com/test/1234?basic=2&email=xyz2@test.com https://example.com/test/1234?email=xyz3@test.com https://example.com/test/1234?email=xyz4@test.com&testin=123 https://example.com/test/the-page-here/1234?someurl=key&email=xyz5@test.com
etc.
How can I get only the email
parameter from these URLs/values?
Please note that I am not getting these strings from the browser address bar.

Answer
You can use the parse_url()
and parse_str()
for that.
$parts = parse_url($url); parse_str($parts['query'], $query); echo $query['email'];
If you want to get the $url
dynamically with PHP, take a look at this question:
