You've to encode the location parameter.

First use php urlencode function to encode the url. Then pass the encoded value as a get parameter. "#" and "=" character need to encoded. It is always better to encode the whole URL.

For your example, Try

http://localhost/my__file.php?location=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fmy__file.php%3Flocation%3Dhttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.testsite.com%2Fphoto-gifts%2Fcustom_photo_necklace_oval_charm%23design%3D68793492

You can not capture value after # in php but if you will pass encoded location value with # value you can get this value.

The last part separated by # is the fragment, which is never submitted to the server. You should URL encode the entire location value so special characters are preserved/lose their meaning.

The anchor tag (#example) won't be detected by PHP as it doesn't get passed on to the server...

You will need to use JavaScript window.location.hash
