Hi Rowan,

On a slight tangent, I consider $_SERVER to be a broken pile of "we'll just shove this in here and hope for the best", and I will oppose any attempt to convert it into an object which doesn't reorganize its keys to be sane, documented, and as cross-platform as the SAPI layer can make it. :P$_SERVER makes sense to me, its content is what the CGI environment variables would be (or are, if you're actually using CGI in 2017). Those are standardised. I don't know if the PHP documentation acknowledges this, though. Its members certainly aren't well-documented… -- Andrea Faulds https://ajf.me/
