Bug #17755 Updated: $PHP_SELF IE5.5 vs Opera6.03

ID: 17755 Updated by: ad@premiere-host.com Reported By: ad@premiere-host.com -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Windows98 PHP Version: 4.2.1 New Comment: I have tried flushing the caches and that has no effect. I also tried $_SERVER[..] with no luck. I also loaded the files to my remote (Apache) server where it performs correctly. So, I deduce, that it is the localhost configuration of Opera and Win98 that produces this problem and it is not truly a PHP problem. I have demonstrated that 1. Opera under Windows sees phpinfo() and within that $PHP_SELF correctly. register_globals is ON. 2. In the code under consideration, URL's can be generated by the PHP and are correctly presented in the output HTML. Only $PHP_SELF is ignored. It is not ignored in this code under IE5.5. That said, it seems that there are two possibilities both of which seem pretty bizarre. 1. Some aspect of my code under Opera inhibits the action of $PHP_SELF replacement. But other globals and other variables are replaced ok. 2. Opera is somehow snipping out the link - but how would it know that the link is created by $PHP_SELF, if the same link is created in other ways it remains in place. Opera say they are working on it, but next week.

Also, are you sure the page is not cached by IE? as if this is server side issue if any, not browser.. (same cache thing goes for Opera too) Try flushing the caches on both browsers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-14 15:33:39] ad@premiere-host.com Yes, I see _SERVER["PHP_SELF"] and it is correct ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-14 15:14:47] sniper@php.net Do you see the _SERVER["PHP_SELF"] in phpinfo() output?
