Customize the request url in php

I would like to highlight the current tab using the url

$url="http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

$gallerypageurl="http://www.domain.com/gallery/"; 
if ($gallerypageurl==$url){ echo "selected"; }else { echo "";}

This highlights the gallery tab when the url is http://www.domain.com/gallery/ but my gallery has a pagination in that, so when I go to second page the url is http://www.domain.com/gallery/2/.

This won't highlight the current gallery tab because the $url (http://www.domain.com/gallery/2/) is not equal to $gallerypageurl (http://www.domain.com/gallery/).

How do you extract only the page url without the page number /2/ or /3/

You may split the request uri into array using explode function, then check the array keys are the ones you need to:

    $uri = 'http://www.domain.com/gallery/2';
    $parts = explode('/', $uri);
    echo 'gallery' === $parts[3] ? 'selected' : '';

Call array_shift twice before, to skip the http and domain name and have array indexed from 1.

BTW, you should sanitize the $_SERVER keys before further processing.

This function works only if section's name is in the first segment of the URL path.

function inSection($section, $url)
{
    $path = parse_url($url, PHP_URL_PATH);
    if(preg_match('@^/([^/]+)/?@', $path, $matches)) {
        return $matches[1] === $section;
    }
    return false;
}

echo inSection('gallery', 'http://www.domain.com/gallery/2/')
     ? 'selected' : '';

You can do it with 

if (strpos($url, $gallerypageurl) !== false) {
    echo 'selected';
}

You could use (for example...) stristr:

if (stristr($url, $gallerypageurl) !== false)
{
  // $gallerypageurl was found in $url
  echo "selected";
}
