Any ideas cause Im lost on this one:

url format:
domain.com/abc.1352.html

Im striping the parts like ".html", "abc"
which only leaves the number "1352".

The "1352" is my search criteria:

<?php
 
$agent = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]; 
$agent = str_replace (".html", "", $agent); 
$agent = str_replace ("abc", "", $agent); 

$lines = file('/home/cgi-bin/cs/data/car.data'); 
foreach ($lines as $line) { 
$parts = explode('|', $line); 
if ($parts[0] == $_GET[' 1352 ']) { 
echo "$parts[50] "; 
}} 
?>

this was accomplished by having a url
domain.com/abc.1352.html?&db_id=1352
if ($parts[0] == $_GET[' db_id ']) {

but I would like to trim it down a notch.

$agent = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$agent = parse_url($var);
$agent[host] = explode('.',$agent[host]);
$searc_crit = $agent[host][1];

I don't know what else exactly you are trying to accomplish, the code is kind of confusing. I think you need to post a larger snippet, or a clearer indication of what you are trying to accomplish.
