Self-referencing a webpage using php

PixelPixie

I'm extracting the contents of the keyword meta tag in current document and saving it to a variable as follows:

// This extracts the house name from the keywords meta tag
// and inserts it into a variable ($housename)
// for use in the subject line of the enquiry form
$meta_tags = get_meta_tags('current-document-name.php');
//echo "The name of the house is {
$housename = $meta_tags[keywords];

I then dynamically write the contents of the resulant variable into the subject line of a form as follows:

<input type="hidden" name="subject" value="<?php echo $housename . " enquiry";?>" />
This works perfectly if I know the name of the file (current-document-name.php), but what if I don't. How do I reference the current document filename from within itself?
I've googled and ransacked the php manuals but to no avail.

Any ideas?

use $PHP_SELF as your document name.

DS

$_SERVER

I can't use $PHP_SELF as the document name as it is a template document that will be used to create other documents (for a CMS solution).

I did come across this, DS, but thought it would only work if I was using it in a form (for submission to itself).
I'll have a go and see.
Thanks

I'm getting the following error:

get_meta_tags(/current-document-name.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path from server root] on line xx.

I've solved the problem as follows:

$path_parts = pathinfo($_SERVER);
$currentfile = $path_parts;
$meta_tags = get_meta_tags($currentfile);
$housename = $meta_tags[keywords];

Thanks for your input.
