Best way to check url contain a String and QueryString in PHP

I am trying to detect whether a url contains a string or a string with querystring, then give it a different function.

The code below is all I can think of and it's doesn't work.

What is the best way to check this?

url 1 = http://example.com/index.php

url 2 = http://example.com/index.php?some-test-page

if (stripos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], 'index')){
    $xurl="http://example2.com/photos/";
} else {
    $req_url = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
    $xurl=('http://example2.com/photos/'   . $req_url . '');
}

Split URL into pieces with parse_url, then examine closer what you need... http://php.net/manual/de/function.parse-url.php

If there's a query string, it will populate the $_GET superglobal. Just check for that and add it back using http_build_query() if needed (this will ensure any escaping is taken care of.)

$xurl = "http://example2.com/photos/";
if (!empty($_GET)) {
    $xurl .= "?" . http_build_query($_GET);
}

You should check for the '?' in requesturi rather than index. 

url 1 = http://example.com/index.php
url 2 = http://example.com/index.php?some-test-page

if (stripos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '?') === false ){

  $xurl="http://example2.com/photos/";

    }
else{
    $req_url = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];

    $xurl=('http://example2.com/photos/'   . $req_url . '');
    }
