Get URL for mediawiki page given the Title - programmatically in PHP [closed]

Question

how can I get URL for an Article in MediaWiki given the title?

I want to create links to certain pages in the skin template programmatically using PHP right now I am doing this:

<a href="<?php $wgScriptPath ?>/index.php/Page_title">Page title</a>

Which is a bit too wordy, I'd like something

<?php page_link_by_title("Page_title") ?>

Thanks!

Answer 1

The answer above should work fine except for a minor typo (Text instead of Test).

$title = Title::newFromText("Title");
$title->getFullURL();

Answer 2

Try this

$title = Title::newFromText("Title");
$title->getFullURL();

That should create a new Title Class (svn.wikimedia.org/doc/classTitle.html), and retrieve the Full URL.
