Or at least the apache SAPI should be modified too. With the current code, PATH_INFO has different meanings (and values) in the Apache and CGI SAPIs, not good at all for applications portability IMHO. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-17 00:58:09] kalowsky@php.net I believe this is a documented issue, and won't be fixed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-16 15:56:02] six@aegis-corp.org There is a very fast way of testing, create a script called phpinfo.php with juste <?phpinfo()?> in it. Then call it like http://yourserver.com/phpinfo.php/this/is/a/test if the two images (zend and php logos) are broken, then $PHP_SELF is not set as it should be. again, this problem only happens with the CGI sapi ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-16 15:44:07] kalowsky@php.net Okay can we have a sample script just to ensure that we may or may not have fixed your issue? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
