Apache Zeta Components - high quality PHP components

Static methods contained in this class:

• parseQueryString() - It implements the functionality of the PHP function parse_str(), but without converting dots to underscores in parameter names.
• getCurrentUrl() - Returns the current URL as a string from the provided array (by default $_SERVER).

The following fields are used in building the URL:

• HTTPS - determines the scheme ('http' or 'https'). 'https' only if the 'HTTPS' field is set or if it is 'on' or '1'
• SERVER_NAME
• SERVER_PORT - determines if port is default (80 = do not include port) or not default (other than 80 = include port)
• REQUEST_URI

1.  $_SERVER = array(
2.      'HTTPS' => '1',
3.      'SERVER_NAME' => 'www.example.com',
4.      'SERVER_PORT' => 80,
5.      'REQUEST_URI' => '/index.php'
6.  );

Then by calling this function (with no parameters), this URL will be returned: 'http://www.example.com/index.php'.

The source of the URL parts can be changed to be other than $_SERVER by specifying an array parameter when calling this function.

It implements the functionality of the PHP function parse_str(), but without converting dots to underscores in parameter names.

Example:

1.  $str = 'foo[]=bar&openid.nonce=123456';
2.  
3.  parse_str( $str, $params );
4.  $params = ezcUrlTools::parseQueryString( $str );

In the first case (parse_str()), $params will be:

1.  array( 'foo' => array( 'bar' ), 'openid_nonce' => '123456' );

In the second case (ezcUrlTools::parseQueryString()), $params will be:

1.  array( 'foo' => array( 'bar' ), 'openid.nonce' => '123456' );
