How to get parameter from the url?

Question

I have to get value of access_token from a URL, like:

localhost/facebook/#access_token=xyz

$_GET['access_token'] doesn't work. How can I get the value of access_token?

because you have /# in the url and rest url it not getting with $_GET[] — jogesh_pi

Use getAccessToken

$facebook->getAccessToken();

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/php/facebook-getAccessToken/

$user = $facebook->getUser();
echo $facebook->getAccessToken();
if(!$user){
    $loginUrl = $facebook->getLoginUrl();
    echo '<a href="$loginUrl">Login with Facebook</a>';
}

Clicking login with take you to fb, you login/accept whatever, then it redirects you back to your page and you get your access token.

You can still get the token from using code. It just passes it through and you use $_GET['code']

I didn't find any method to get access token form code. Please any suggestion?

I'm assuming you're using the login url?

I believe the hash part of the URL isn't sent to PHP, so can't be accessed via PHP. Javascript can access it, and can then pass it onto PHP.

There is a guide here showing how.
