1I think you should choose PHP or javascript and not ask on both languages. Also what do you mean by "shown in Text box" ? – Gabriel Devillers Aug 08 '18 at 20:19

You just have to get a hold on the QueryString or URL that comes in, then its a matter of parsing that string... that could be achieved in both language easilly. – Minus Aug 08 '18 at 20:36

parse_url()
is your friend for PHP. See: http://php.net/manual/en/function.parse-url.php

In Javascript you can get it by:
window.location.pathname
This shows the string /question
if the URL is:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions
Here is an example of this site:
const URL = window.location.pathname;
console.log(URL);

You can store it in a variable using (const, var, let). Then you can access this variable later again and use it in a different location. Like in the console.log example. – Willem van der Veen Aug 08 '18 at 20:35
