**hi all
I found this URL have mystery point, they use ; instead of &
From this we can use some strange character like $ or # … :D, it sound good huh ?
How they did ? anybody know or have idea please join, thanks:
hic, I mean that how they can use the ; “symbol” instead of & in their URL
you know, when we “transfer” variableS we usually use** & **to transfer both of them, but in this case they use ** ; **
& is the defualt in PHP, but you can change it to whatever you want if you have full control of the server. But the standard for parsing variables is &
& is the standard for an HTML query string (standard MIME format application/x-www-form-urlencoded), not necessarily PHP specifically ;). In the case of that link, you just get one variable equaling
thread;threadid=52
That variable can then be interpretted any way you wish - split by ‘;’ characters or however you want all depending on whatever backend you write to support it.
