How to show url in php page

[Bayliss Trevor]

Hi all,
If the url is mydomain.com/page.php?type=fish

how can I output the text string "fish" in my page (it is just for some wireframing it is really basic). Thank-you

[logic_earth]

print $_GET['type'];

Thats cool
How do I say
if $_GET['type'];
is something
then set it to a variable? Then I will just echo the result

Thanks Im just moving over from coldfusion to php

You mean

if ($_GET['type']=='fish')
echo 'whatever';

echo $_GET['type'];
