note 59934 added to function.getenv

I've read all the comments here. Most of you trust that HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR is the real ip address of the user. But it can easily be faked by sending a wrong HTTP request. REMOTE_ADDR does contain the 'real' ip address (maybe of the proxy server but it cannot be faked as easy as X_FORWARDED_FOR) So if you rely on checking the visitor by it's ip address validate _both_ $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] and $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.getenv.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+59934 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59934&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59934&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59934&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59934&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59934&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59934&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59934&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+59934&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
