PHP remove part of URL before querystring

Question

I have url like this http://example.com/dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4/Page.php?charts.htm and I need to remove the page/extension before the querystring so it outputs http://example.com/dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4/?charts.htm

$url = "http://$_SERVER[HTTP_HOST]$_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]";
$temp = explode( '?'  , $url );
$temp[0] = ""; //remove part before the ?

Not even sure if I'm on the right track here

you're kind of on the right track if you want the page to redirect to the url without Page.php in the name. if you want this done dynamically on each request without a redirect on page load, then you need to use .htaccess — iam-decoder

This will be output on a page, not a redirect. Just need to show the new url with the Page.php removed — Dirty Bird Design

try this :

$url = str_replace("Page.php", "", $url);

You can use a combination of parse_url() and dirname()

$url = "http://example.com/dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4/Page.php?charts.htm";
$urlArray = parse_url($url); // Array ( [scheme] => http [host] => example.com [path] => /dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4/Page.php [query] => charts.htm )

$newURL  = $urlArray["scheme"]."://".$urlArray["host"]."/";
$newURL .= dirname($urlArray["path"])."/?".$urlArray["query"];
// gives http://example.com/dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4/?charts.htm
