JURI/getInstance
From Joomla! Documentation
< JURI
Static method which either returns a reference to the global JURI object, only creating it if it doesn't already exist, or which creates a new object representing the URI passed to it as a parameter. The global URI object represents the URI that caused the current page to be rendered.

Syntax
object &getInstance( $uri )
where:
| Argument | Data type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| $uri | string | URI to be represented by the JURI object. If this is 'SERVER' then the request URI is assumed. | 'SERVER' |
Example 1
In this example, a URI object is created and then converted back to string form.
$uri = 'http://fredbloggs:itsasecret@www.example.com:8080/path/to/Joomla/index.php?task=view&id=32#anchorthis'; $u =& JURI::getInstance( $uri ); echo 'URI is ' . $u->toString() . "\n";
would output
URI is http://fredbloggs:itsasecret@www.example.com:8080/path/to/Joomla/index.php?task=view&id=32#anchorthis
Example 2
To obtain the current request URI this method can be called with no arguments. This has the same effect as calling JFactory::getURI().
$u =& JURI::getInstance(); echo 'Request URI is ' . $u->toString() . "\n";
might output
Request URI is http://localhost/joomla/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1&Itemid=50
