Brief description : My blog’s name is Android-Examples.com so if my file path is Android-Examples.com/upload/file.php then it will display only /upload/file.php . But if you are using &mod=, ?id=121 or Android-Examples.com/demopage12.php?id=121 then it will only display /demopage12.php so to show the whole url you have to use $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] it will return the whole page url including the ? and = symbols.
