blegh ('somePage.php?action=doSomething&id=');

Ok, the important parts that I need to obtain from this are:

somePage
doSomething

How can you modify the pattern above to grab the action appropriately? Sorry, my regex is a lil rusty!

Thanks in advance,

That regex might not always work for you, (&amp;) comes to mind. You might want to look at parse_str() which you can use after parse_url() if needed.

That's a good thought. However, I am specifically sending a URL that has not yet been urlencoded, so I know that &amp; won't be occurring.

Thanks,
~Philip
