Note that a few $_SERVER variables are not safe to use at all, because they are based on information provided by the client-side. For more information, see: http://markjaquith.wordpress.com/2009/09/21/ php-server-vars-not-safe-in-forms-or-links/ Notable, to get the current directory (e.g. for opendir(), or config file reading), use: <?php $path = dirname(__FILE__); ?> To post a form to the same URL, use: <form action=""> An empty URL will redirect the form to the same page. A single dot (.) will redirect the form to the current folder. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 84.80.203.199 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.server.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/98375 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98375/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98375/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98375/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98375/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98375/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98375/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98375 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/98375 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
