ID: 12320 Updated by: hholzgra Reported By: stefan@digiconcept.net Old Status: Open Status: Bogus Bug Type: IIS related Operating System: Win 2K PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: because $HTTP_SERVER_VARS is protable across server APIs (although not every variable in it is set by every API) while getenv() is specific to only some of them remember that gentenv() is a generic environment access function and as such OS-dependant (on some operating systems you might even have no such environment at all) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-07-23 11:36:53] stefan@digiconcept.net Hi ! The combination of Win2K and IIS5 seams to prevent the nice function getenv to return values. Infos like 'SERVER_SOFTWARE' and so are correctly stored in $HTTP_SERVER_VARS, but why shoul I have 2 access the infos directly via an awfull code like $x= $GLOBALS[]... if I got an getenv-function ... regards stefan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=12320&edit=1
