Well I was thinking along the lines of using a cookie instead... But now I get what you mean, I hope you resolve it...

hmm

Reading your post mscreashuns prompted me to try something I should have done myself really, - echoing the variable.
it revealed my true problem as it showed that $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] does actually get the p=2 bit as well

Soits something within the page script when it goes to the next page, as it most certainly doesnt use the p=2 that is put in the address bar

demonhale, thanks but yes, you were on the wrong track
I have a page that has user items on it, if the user has more than 30 items it displays a link for page 2.but page 2 is still scripted within the same file, it has all the same layout etc, but just displays the 30-60 items

so if the user went to the delete item page and then changed his mind and selected NO, I wanted to send them back to whatever item page number they were viewing when they clicked to go to the next page

but basically sending the user to website.com/index.php?p=2 wont work because the scripts on the page havent determined there is a page 2 (p=2) until the page actually runs, so simply sending a user to that URL link doesnt cut it

I will have to have a good think about it
Thanks for the input though
I must remember to echo vars I am having trouble with the find out what they are doing

cheers!

Why dont you just put a basic link for the no part so that it goes to the desired page, rather than scripting it in?

i.e.
Yes (You follow form submite)
No (No)

or I might be misunderstanding what you're trying to achieve...

You want to display the URL with the variables attached, as it would appear if one wanted to visit it?

So it seems you could do something like this, with the variables you have listed below:

$fullURL = $url . "?p=" . $pagenumber;
echo $fullURL;

and you could place that URL within just about anything to get the result of (in your example):

Quote:
/folder/index.php?p=2
