regex for path determination
I have a config file I use for public stuff as well as admin stuff

I need help constructing a regex that can find the word "admin" when I pass $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] to it.

So when I echo $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] now I get /pps/admin/mypages.php


I have never looked into regex's before, and there may be a better way of doing what I need to do. If you know of one, lemme know,..


TIA

Well, you don't need a regexp for it. You can do ->

PHP Code:
if ( stristr( $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] ), 'admin' ) {
/* do something */
} else {
/* not in string */
}

This works:

PHP Code:
<?php

  $isAdminPage = false;
  
  $thePath = "/pps/not_an_admin_page.php";
  //$thePath = "/pps/fakeadmin.php";
  //$thePath = "/pps/admin/mypage.php";
  
  $aryList = split("/", $thePath);
  
  $lastElement = array_pop($aryList);
  
  //print_r($aryList);
  
  if ($lastElement == "admin") {
    $isAdminPage = true;
  }
  
  if (in_array("admin", $aryList)) {
    $isAdminPage = true;    
  }
  
  if ($isAdminPage) {
    print "This is an admin page";
  } else {
    print "This is not an admin page";
  }
  
?>

The above will work, but if you have a script called "pre_admin_page.php" or something similar, even though it isn't an admin page, it will get picked up as one.
