How to replace a query string using regex?

Question

How to replace a query string like

page=3&searchform=1&cityS=-1&category=24& to page=[0-9] ?

I'm using the following

preg_replace('/page=d*&?/','',$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);

but in the end, &3 appears.

You can use:

preg_replace('/^.*?(\bpage=[0-9]*)&.*$/','$1', $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);

Or else you can simply use

$_GET['page']

To get this query parameter value.
