In PHP, how can the URL of a page be extracted and compared to the home page URL to determine if a user is on the home page?

To determine if a user is on the home page in PHP, you can extract the current page's URL using $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] and compare it to the home page URL. If the two URLs match, then the user is on the home page.

$current_url = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$home_url = "/"; // Set the home page URL here

if ($current_url == $home_url) {
    echo "User is on the home page";
} else {
    echo "User is not on the home page";
}
