$PHP_SELF only contains filename of the currently executing script,
nothing else.

Cannot reproduce on server (and client ftm) SuSE 7.2 w/
Apache 1.3.22 using Netscape Communicator or Konqueror.
Can you reproduce this behavior under all browsers? What
happens when you use a submit button instead of javascript?

<?php
if($HTTP_GET_VARS["delete"]){
echo "delete";
}else{
echo "don't delete";
}
?>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF;?>" method="POST"
name="form1">
<input type="text" name="test">
<a href="javascript:document.form1.submit();">Save</a>
</form>
<a href="<?php echo $PHP_SELF;?>?delete=true">delete</a>
</body>
</html>
The script above don't work correctly. After clicking "delete" the
if-statement print "delete". Then you click on "Save" and the
if-statement print "delete" just like you click on "delete".
If the "echo $PHP_SELF" in the form-tag will be replaced by the
plaintext-name of the script everything will work correctly - you can
click on "Save" then and the if-statement gives you a "don't delete".
It seems like the $PHP_SELF stores the HTTP_GET_VARS, but if I do a
"echo $PHP_SELF" I get the script path, the script name and that's all,
there are no HTTP_GET_VARS - but the script still works like the
HTTP_GET_VARS are there.
