HTTP_BUILD_QUERY(3) 1 HTTP_BUILD_QUERY(3)http_build_query - Generate URL-encoded query stringSYNOPSIS
string http_build_query PHP_QUERY_RFC1738 (mixed $query_data, [string $numeric_prefix], [string $arg_separator], [int $enc_type])
DESCRIPTION
Generates a URL-encoded query string from the associative (or indexed) array provided.
PARAMETERS
o $query_data
- May be an array or object containing properties. If $query_data is an array, it may be a simple one-dimensional structure, or
an array of arrays (which in turn may contain other arrays). If $query_data is an object, then only public properties will be
incorporated into the result.
o $numeric_prefix
- If numeric indices are used in the base array and this parameter is provided, it will be prepended to the numeric index for ele-
ments in the base array only. This is meant to allow for legal variable names when the data is decoded by PHP or another CGI
application later on.
o $arg_separator
-arg_separator.output is used to separate arguments, unless this parameter is specified, and is then used.
o $enc_type
- By default, PHP_QUERY_RFC1738. If $enc_type is PHP_QUERY_RFC1738, then encoding is performed per RFC 1738 and the applica-
tion/x-www-form-urlencoded media type, which implies that spaces are encoded as plus ( +) signs. If $enc_type is
PHP_QUERY_RFC3986, then encoding is performed according to RFC 3986, and spaces will be percent encoded ( %20).
RETURN VALUES
Returns a URL-encoded string.

EXAMPLES
Example #1
Simple usage of http_build_query(3)
<?php
$data = array('foo'=>'bar',
'baz'=>'boom',
'cow'=>'milk',
'php'=>'hypertext processor');
echo http_build_query($data) . "
";
echo http_build_query($data, '', '&');
?>
The above example will output:
foo=bar&baz=boom&cow=milk&php=hypertext+processor
foo=bar&baz=boom&cow=milk&php=hypertext+processor
Example #2
http_build_query(3) with numerically index elements.
<?php
$data = array('foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'boom', 'cow' => 'milk', 'php' =>'hypertext processor');
echo http_build_query($data) . "
";
echo http_build_query($data, 'myvar_');
?>
The above example will output:
0=foo&1=bar&2=baz&3=boom&cow=milk&php=hypertext+processor
myvar_0=foo&myvar_1=bar&myvar_2=baz&myvar_3=boom&cow=milk&php=hypertext+processor
Example #3
http_build_query(3) with complex arrays
<?php
$data = array('user'=>array('name'=>'Bob Smith',
'age'=>47,
'sex'=>'M',
'dob'=>'5/12/1956'),
'pastimes'=>array('golf', 'opera', 'poker', 'rap'),
'children'=>array('bobby'=>array('age'=>12,
'sex'=>'M'),
'sally'=>array('age'=>8,
'sex'=>'F')),
'CEO');
echo http_build_query($data, 'flags_');
?>
this will output : (word wrapped for readability)
user%5Bname%5D=Bob+Smith&user%5Bage%5D=47&user%5Bsex%5D=M&
user%5Bdob%5D=5%2F12%2F1956&pastimes%5B0%5D=golf&pastimes%5B1%5D=opera&
pastimes%5B2%5D=poker&pastimes%5B3%5D=rap&children%5Bbobby%5D%5Bage%5D=12&
children%5Bbobby%5D%5Bsex%5D=M&children%5Bsally%5D%5Bage%5D=8&
children%5Bsally%5D%5Bsex%5D=F&flags_0=CEO
Note
Only the numerically indexed element in the base array "CEO" received a prefix. The other numeric indices, found under pas-
times, do not require a string prefix to be legal variable names.
Example #4
Using http_build_query(3) with an object
<?php
class parentClass {
public $pub = 'publicParent';
protected $prot = 'protectedParent';
private $priv = 'privateParent';
public $pub_bar = Null;
protected $prot_bar = Null;
private $priv_bar = Null;
public function __construct(){
$this->pub_bar = new childClass();
$this->prot_bar = new childClass();
$this->priv_bar = new childClass();
}
}
class childClass {
public $pub = 'publicChild';
protected $prot = 'protectedChild';
private $priv = 'privateChild';
}
$parent = new parentClass();
echo http_build_query($parent);
?>
The above example will output:
pub=publicParent&pub_bar%5Bpub%5D=publicChild
