Re: pathinfo or other

Hi, All I do not remember where I found the list of variables that are provided if you load PHP using Apache, nginx, IIS ... Fact is that there's a list of variables in the CGI 1.1 definition that should be given to a cgi script: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3875#section-4 PATH_INFO is on the list and therewith should at least be given to every cgi-script. As not all web-server are fully compatible to the definition or do not support cgi 1.1 there are quite much posts where you find work-arounds for misconfiguration web-servers. I know about nginx that you have to add a special configuration to get the path_info - but the example provided at the developers-page sometimes returns a wrong value. See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8265941/empty-value-to-path-info-in-nginx-returns-junk-value/ Maybe there are also some other known issues around this PATH_INFO ... Here's a request for a portable way to receive the path-info even if it's not provided by the web-server: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1884041/portable-and-safe-way-to-get-path-info I've always tried to use something like mod_rewrite and manage all incoming requests in an own dispatcher. That helped me a lot getting around this problems. Hope that this gives you more detailed information in what you need.
