Using PHP you can return the current url of the page by simply using :
$pageURL = 'http://'.$_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
echo $pageURL;
By using string manipulation you can also us this function to return the end characters of the url request.
For the following url: http://minimalistics.co.uk/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=89 we can return the end numbers using the following code:
$pageURL = 'http://'.$_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
$pageURL = substr($pageURL,strrpos($pageURL,"=")+1);
echo $pageURL;
The result of this would be 89.
