        If url is 'index.php/hello' then $request will be 'hello'


$request = $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'];
if (isset($request[0]) && ($request[0] == '/')) {
    $request = substr($request, 1);
}

In order to do the 'split' thing: $data = explode("/",$_SERVER['PATH_INFO']); $request = $data[0];

Cool! I don't know PHP, but is there a way you could use a 'split' sort of function to do this automatically?
