Bug description: Unable to pass path info while using php in cgi mode.
I am unable to pass pathinfo to my script while using php in cgi mode.
The problem in particular (maybe you all know of a workaround) is I'm trying to create a
download script. While using PHP in cgi mode I can't get Netscape and IE to assign the
download the proper name...
A possible solution could be a path_info translation something like:
http://www/cgi-bin/php/scriptdir/script.php3;/path_infoToPassToScript
Let me know what you think...
P.S. The PHP base library is awesome and I wouldn't mind seeing future versions of PHP having
the DB abstraction libraries that the PHP base library offers built in.
