is any function/property in PHP like js:location.href, to give the current url, to get compared, for producing highlight menu items ?
a local php server in a laptop needs internet connection to work locally only ?

I got the redirect part, but can you rephrase the rest of it?

To redirect in php:

<?php
header("Location: location.php");
?>

I do NOT Redirection but a statement that assigns current URL To a var like javascript's location.href ?

So you have a button - and when you click it it will take you some where? Or, it will tell you the URL of the page your currently at?

Will this variable be good for you?

$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] 

[djr33]

More generally, any information you need similar to that (at least that is available in PHP) should be somewhere in one of these variables:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php
Look at $_SERVER.

(post, get, cookie, session, etc. are useful too, but those are for other purposes than general information about the environment.)

$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] 

'SCRIPT_NAME' what is it ? to get current url , what must be ?

There is a list here: http://uk2.php.net/reserved.variables.server

$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] = Contains the current script's path. This is useful for pages which need to point to themselves. The __FILE__ constant contains the full path and filename of the current (i.e. included) file.
