RE: [PHP-WIN] Strange internet problem

I just got another message this weekend. Here are some of the contents of the phpinfo: _SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"] x.x.x.x _SERVER["REMOTE_HOST"] x.x.x.x _SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] GET _SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"] /index.php3 _SERVER["SERVER_NAME"] www.yahoo.com _SERVER["SERVER_PORT"] 80 The client approached my webserver with www.yahoo.com in the host header. So this is a strange situation. Anyone seen anything like this before?

Killmer Subject: RE: [PHP-WIN] Strange internet problem Worth a shot. I've been bit before by silly little things I've done in my code to clean things up, only to find out that they were excluding important information. When in doubt, get a higher level view.
