PhP script to know the current URL

Question

The duplicate question deals with .htaccess issue. I deal with the fact that /index.php may or may not be part of original URL

One way to do so is to do

http://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']

The problem is if URL is http://domainname.com the

http://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']

will yield

http://domainname.com/index.php

instead.

I need something that yield http://domainname.com

And why don't you just use `http://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']` then? — Burki, Nov 24 '15 at 08:51
The linked duplicate uses `REQUEST_URI` instead of `PHP_SELF`. It also includes a bunch of other methods that work with proxy forwarding. — h2ooooooo, Nov 24 '15 at 08:53
Because I want to show http://domainname.com/hello/bla.bla.php when users indeed access http://domainname.com/hello/bla.bla.php — user4951, Nov 24 '15 at 08:57

You have to user HTTP_HOST for your current host name :-

http://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']
