I need to remove this string
page=x
x being a dynamic string (should be a number but can be anything)
from another string, for example
url/?filter=value&page=2&filter2=value
but it can also be:
url/?page=2
So, these are the cases as examples
1. url/?page=2&filter=value
2. url/?page=2
3. url/?filter=value&page=2
4. url/?filter=value&page=2&filter2=value
And they should return:
1. url/?filter=value
2. url/
3. url/?filter=value
4. url/?filter=value&filter2=value
How can I do that with regex?
You've said:
[?&]page=[^&]+
works for you. This will look for an ? or & then page= and anything after it until an &. A bit longer answer though is:
echo rtrim(preg_replace('/([?&])page=[^&]*&?/', '$1', $string), '&?')
which will correctly handle the intro and ending parameter cases.
