apache_lookup_uri

Perform a partial request for the specified URI and return all info about it (PHP 4, PHP 5)
object apache_lookup_uri ( string filename )

Example 204. apache_lookup_uri() example

<?php

$info = apache_lookup_uri('index.php?var=value');
print_r($info);


if (file_exists($info->filename)) {

    echo 'file exists!';

}
?>

The above example will output something similar to:

copy to clipboard

stdClass Object

(

    [status] => 200

    [the_request] => GET /dir/file.php HTTP/1.1

    [method] => GET

    [mtime] => 0

    [clength] => 0

    [chunked] => 0

    [content_type] => application/x-httpd-php

    [no_cache] => 0

    [no_local_copy] => 1

    [unparsed_uri] => /dir/index.php?var=value

    [uri] => /dir/index.php

    [filename] => /home/htdocs/dir/index.php

    [args] => var=value

    [allowed] => 0

    [sent_bodyct] => 0

    [bytes_sent] => 0

    [request_time] => 1074282764

)

file exists!

Code Examples / Notes » apache_lookup_uri

Apparently on PHP 4.2, this function returns an array instead of an object. That being the case, the example code above would translate to: <?php $info = apache_lookup_uri('index.php?var=value'); print_r($info); if (file_exists($info['filename'])) { echo 'file exists!'; } ?> A means of making this transparent so that the object syntax works, is left as an exercise for the reader. ;-)

A useful feature is that if you have content negotiation on (Options MultiViews) Apache will resolve the negotiation for you if possible. Thus www.example.com/blah will resolve to /base/blah.php or /base/blah.html or even /base/blah.en.html as appropriate.
