I am having following url,
www.example.com/index.php?r=recommend/create&id=184?
title=Ruins%20of%20Mahabalipuram
&url=http://localhost/index.php/mediadetail/index/184
I need to get title and url which are query string parameters.
Has anyone worked on getting values in query string in Yii?
There is also the getParam() method in CHttpRequest.
Yii::app()->request->getParam('title')
I've found it a valuable shortcut, since it checks both $_POST and $_GET and gives priority to $_GET, so you can use it to override post variables in the address URL. It also performs null checks and you can provide a default value in the second parameter.
The drawbacks are that you can't use it for arrays and maybe it's a little bit verbose (compared to $_GET['title']).
Look the function parse_str, it would worked and if not, look parse_url but it's not necessary for what you want to do.
They'll automatically be available in your action as $_GET variables. Yii handles parsing them for you as part of the CHttpRequest object
