Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-23 12:41:40] giupnol at freemail dot it Regarding the previous feedback. Unfortunately register_globals is turned on. So this is probably still a bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-23 09:58:35] pollita@php.net I'm assuming that this condition came about after an upgrade. Very likely an upgrade from a version in which register_globals was defaulted to on. Since 4.3.3 has register globals off that would explain your problem. Try referencing the variable as $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] or setting register_globals=on in your php.ini (and restarting your webserver). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-06-23 03:00:52] giupnol at freemail dot it Description: ------------ $REQUEST_URI=="" Simply that. I use this global variable in order to keep history of the pages visited by the users, so i discovered this bug. Reproduce code: --------------- <? echo $REQUEST_URI; ?> Expected result: ---------------- /some_location/some_page.html Actual result: -------------- NONE ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=24293&edit=1
