Get the URL including fragment using PHP or JavaScript

Question

My website URL is something like the below:

http://localhost/naveendalmeida/news.php#news_6

How can I get the URL to include #news_6 using PHP or JavaScript.

@YourCommonSense To be fair, none of those results (that I saw) directly answer the question. — Wesley Murch, Feb 23 '13 at 18:40
And who is voting to close "not a real question"? To me the question is crystal clear, just *very* basic. This could be the top Google result within a couple weeks and then you can close others as "duplicate". — Wesley Murch, Feb 23 '13 at 18:42

window.location.href should return what you need (javascript).

Getting it in php seems a little more verbose:-

For php parse_url function is utilized for parsing url

For retrieving fragment part of url through parse_url function

e.g

$url_info=parse_url($url);

echo $url_info['fragment'];
