Joomla 1.5
Search Engine Friendly URLs (YES)
Use Apache mod_rewrite (YES)
Add suffix to URLs (NO)
Can anyone point me in the right direction in terms of getting information out of the database while on a specific page?
Basically, on my site (
www.WhereAmIRiding.com
) when you click on your own profile page, it reads:
whereamiriding.com/my-profile
Well, I'm using some PHP scripts for creating Google Maps and I don't have an accurate way of getting the username of the page that I'm on or any other details. If I was able to pull the username from the DB I could get any other information from the DB as well.
When the link is like this:
www.whereamiriding.com/my-profile/userprofile/strega
I'm obviously able to pull the username from the URL but that's a shady hack.
Anyone have any suggestions here?
Based on the page I'm viewing, I'd like to be able to get that username out of the DB (then I can search other things)
How would I go about this using PHP to pull that info?
I tried looking at all the global data but it doesn't give any user information while on that specific page.
Thanks!
