Re: What version did $PHP_SELF still work?

Hi Mike and Jim, From my earlier message [Re: PHP 4.0.6 $PHP_SELF empty?]: > No, I updated my php.ini manually (just to change the zend optimizer and >add the DBG debugger. These two lines from php.ini haven't changed for sure: > >variables_order = "EGPCS"; >register_globals = On; > According to phpinfo, $PHP_SELF is set, but simply empty! I'm fully aware of the scope issues, and $GLOBALS[PHP_SELF] returns the same thing as $PHP_SELF (= ''), and these aren't withing classes, functions or anything like that. It's as simple as this not working in somefile.php: <form action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF ?>" method="POST"> <input ...> </form> I've looked over every single line in my php.ini, the only thing changed (checked with diff) is adding the debugger info for DBG. That doesn't do it either, I replaced it with my original from PHP4.0.2, no go either. Help!
