Please show any code samples you may have come up with in an attempt to solve your problem. Is "core" important?, is "click" important? — Scuzzy

Use parse_url() function to return the path part of the url.

<?php
// returns: /core/click/3492/3389
$path = parse_url('http://example.com/core/click/3492/3389', PHP_URL_PATH);

Then you can explode() the path into its parts:

$path = explode('/', ltrim($path, '/'));

print_r($path);

Array
(
    [0] => core
    [1] => click
    [2] => 3492
    [3] => 3389
)

The second parameter to parse_url is a great way to get just the path too without the additional variable assignment.

what to do if this 3492 value is a variable value

Lawrence Cherone Over a year ago

@Mark you won't have issues if the value changes only that if you're trying to access it like say $path[2] and then the url changes to /core/foo/click/3492/3389, but you didn't mention that in the question.

Mark Over a year ago

sir only 3492 and 3389 are variables and remaining path is not changed.

Ok, you should not have an issue accessing them like $path[2] and $path[3].
