note 28024 added to reserved.variables

Concerning $_SERVER['PHP-SELF']: As of PHP 4.3.0 it is no longer true that "if PHP is running as a command-line processor, this variable [PHP_SELF] is not available.". At least for the CLI processor. Instead, the variable is set to the filename you supplied for starting the PHP script. If you, for example, start your script from the shell by executing "php -f /usr/local/httpd/htdocs/test.php", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] will be set to "/usr/local/httpd/htdocs/test.php". In the past I've used $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] as a switch in my scripts to support both execution modes: // DOES NOT WORK ANY MORE FOR PHP >= 4.3.0: if (empty($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])) // run as command line script else // run as dynamic web page Since the above does not work any more, using the $_SERVER['SERVER_*'] variables the same way may be a solution to the problem, i.e. // SHOULD WORK FOR PHP >= 4.3.0 if (empty($_SERVER['SERVER_SOFTWARE'])) // run as command line script else // run as dynamic web page br WOT -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+28024 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+28024 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+28024
