Check for url paramater existance
 

Hello ..

Wondering if there is a way in smarty to find out if a certain parameter exists in the url's query string?

e.g: current url - product.php?productid=16137&cat=0&page=1&featured
and I need to check if the parameter 'featured' exists ...

{if $php_url.query_string eq "featured"} ... {/if} doesn't seem to work, because that outputs the whole query string ...

Can anyone help ?

Thanks

IS there a way to read just part of the query string? Like an instring function of some sort? I need to look for "mode=checkout" within the query string, but there may be more parameters then that.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi Phil...

Thanks for your quick response... I should have been a little more clear... I have 2 options:

1. cart.php?mode=checkout
2. cart.php?mode=checkout&signup=1

If the signup=1 is present then I show the user a hidden div tag where they can signup for a membership.

I tried this but it didnt work.

{if $signup eq "1"} ... {/if}
Any ideas?

Many Thanks,
