如何解析网址的数组元素

I have a url which looks like this:

http://localhost/projectcode12may2014/ampanel/index.php?rel=common_listing&module=company&field%5B%5D=address&adv_operation%5B%5D=c&value%5B%5D=sector&query_type%5B%5D=AND&submit=Submit

In the decoded form, it looks like:

http://localhost/projectcode12may2014/ampanel/index.php?rel=common_listing&module=company&field[]=address&adv_operation[]=c&value[]=sector&query_type[]=AND&submit=Submit

I am trying to parse this URL and get the values of field[], adv_operation[] and query_type[] as arrays, but I am just getting Array written in text if I try to parse these fields. I am using parse_url() and parse_str() for parsing. Can anyone suggest a suitable method for this? Thanks in advance.

You're probably displaying the array section incorrectly, because your method should work.

You use parse_url to extract the "query" segment of the URL, then use parse_str to load it into a variable.

Example:

$url = "http://example.com/page.php?a=apple&b=banana&z=zebra&arr[]=1&arr[]=2";
$query = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_QUERY);

var_dump($query);
// string(40) "a=apple&b=banana&z=zebra&arr[]=1&arr[]=2"

parse_str($query, $parsed);
var_dump($parsed);
/*
array(4) {
  ["a"]=>
  string(5) "apple"
  ["b"]=>
  string(6) "banana"
  ["z"]=>
  string(5) "zebra"
  ["arr"]=>
  array(2) {
    [0]=>
    string(1) "1"
    [1]=>
    string(1) "2"
  }
}
*/

// $parsed["arr"] is now array(1, 2);

Below are the output formats of the array parameter:

$url = '<your_url>';
$parsedUrl = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_QUERY);
parse_str($parsedUrl);

echo $field;
/*
outputs as:
Array
*/

echo $field[0];
/*
outputs as:
address
*/

print_r($field);
/*
outputs as:
Array
(
    [0] => address
)
*/
