Hey, was looking for a bit of php help for a page I'm making. Just as a note I'm learning php currently but I'm not great at it so any help would be great.

Heres what I want to do;

the page URL is:http://www.whatever.com/whatever.php/123

now I'm trying to make a php program that will grab the path info, so what's in the URL bar and parse out 123, or for that matter any other number that is at the end. Then simply input it into a variable called $newsart. I've tried a few different ways and have been told that in newer version of php the function for grabbing that path info has changed. Does anyone have any suggestions?
