pass url from one page to another

[rhinomac]

hello,
i am trying to pass a url from one page into another to have it set as the source of the iframe.
here is the url

http://abc.com/info_frame1.php?http://www.google.com

.......................................................
here is the code i am trying to use on the page that opens (info_frame1)

<script type="text/javascript">

function getQueryStringVars() {

var server_variables = {};
var query_string = window.location.search.split( "?" )[ 1 ];
}

window.onload = function() {

ifr = document.getElementsByTagName( "iframe" )[ 0 ];
ifr.src = getQueryStringVars();
}

</script>
.................................
and the iframe code:
<IFRAME name =

"mainbody"
src = ""
width = "100%"
height = "450"
scrolling = "auto"
frameborder = "1"
align = "middle"
marginwidth = "0"
marginheight = "0"></IFRAME>
Any help would be appreciated,
Rhino

Are you trying to pass the Google link part of the URL to another page? I'm not entirely clear.

If so, you can send it across to your info_frame1.php file:

http://abc.com/info_frame1.php?url=http://www.google.com

I added "url=" to assign the url to a $_GET variable. And then to access it using PHP and then set it to a variable in JavaScript:

<?php
$url = $_GET["url"];
print('var theURL = $url;');
?>

If I'm way off, let me know.

Good luck,
Nick

Whoops, make sure you put the $url in quotes so that it's recognized as a string.

print('var theURL = "$url";');

Thanks for the help, seems that I am running into an issue since there is a ? in the google url as well. It cuts it off at that point.
Is there anyway around this..
Thanks again
Rhino
example:

http://abc.com/info_frame1.php?url=http://www.google.comhttp://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=test

How about this? Forgetting about php...

function getAfterQ()
{
  var arr = location.href.split('?');
  arr.reverse();
  arr.pop();
  arr.reverse();
  return arr.join('?');
}
