Hi list,
Just out of curiosity I would like to know if anyone can tell me the
difference between some $_SERVER variables that generate the same output (in
my test-file at least).
For instance, what is the difference between $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] and
$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']? Can they generate different output under some
circumstances? They're always the same with me. Any recommendations on which
to use?
I know that $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] can differ from 'SCRIPT_NAME' and
'PHP_SELF' (I use 'REQUEST_URI' to see what people were looking for when
they hit a 404) but can $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] and $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] be
different?
TIA,

I would suggest reading up on the variables available
http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php
That will answer all your questions.

Well, I've seen that, but for instance;
'PHP_SELF'
The filename of the currently executing script, relative to the document
root.
--and--
'SCRIPT_NAME'
Contains the current script's path.
doesn't mean much to me... They both return the same results to me, also.
When do these differ?

Again, post a script which displays the problem. I've only seen little
snippets which do not consitute a working example. It will be seen by
many and fixed within minutes.
I have had this functionality active every day for years over many
different version of PHP in many different environments. The good news
is that the problem is not with PHP. That means it's the code, which is
easy to fix.

Subject: RE: [PHP] I'm really getting annoyed with PHP
FYI. I did this login page for another website last month and I used the
code from it to do this one. The other one works perfectly. I checked
that code again today and there is ABSOLUTELY no differnce. I even used
the same variables and session names. The only difference between the
two sites is that the one that works is running IIS on Windows 2000
Server. The broken one is on a Linux box running Apache. Both PHP and
MySQL are the same versions. Remember also that the Header redirect is
working in the redirect.inc page, which is even more confusing.
I have really given up on it. It just ain't gonna work - no matter what
I do. I thought I finally had it working again, but of course - another
f*** up.
Can you explain this? Along with my other code I used a little piece of
javascript to do the redirect, and lo and behold it worked. But now my
paths are all screwed up. I just don't get it.
In the example I tried, the page I am redirected to has a form on it.
When I click submit it should go to the page specified in the action,
which is season_write.php.
<FORM onSubmit="return checkrequired(this)" ACTION="season_write.php"
action="post" name="seasons">
But for some reason it tries to go to /setup/season_write.php. This is
not specified anywhere in any of my code. So where the hell it getting
this from.
The more I use PHP the more I am becoming convinced I should be using
something else. This is just ridiculous.

Questions:
1. What verion of php are you running?
2. What version of apache are you running? Or other web server? 3. What
is your configuration for php? check phpinfo() 4. Is php built from
source or a binary (rpm, exe)? 5. What OS are you running on and what

AFAICS, $_SESSION['valid_user'] is getting set by a previous page, it's a
*session*.

Every single person who posted here thought that PHP could handle it. If
header("Location: http://www.google.com"); doesn't work, there's something
wrong with your version of PHP.
attached mail follows:
I'm using the redirect with php for a long time, with no problems.
I use it in all of my pages, including navigational menus.
The great problem with "headers" is the function "exit" if it is used to ends the call.
"headers + exit", if used in any place, may cause some collateral efects.

Why? AFAIK, exit quits the script, exactly what you want if you want to
redirect.
attached mail follows:
You are absolutely right, exit, quits my script, this let me use an independent script to
handle the headers. if used with conditional calls. .

This has already been discussed, and is not the preferred method of
doing redirects. PHP can handle what he is doing just fine.

I know Javascript is browser dependent, so its undependable.
using headers in php requires that no output is sent to the browser,
what if the code logic requires that there is some output sent to the
browser. I am sorry if this is a repeat question because someone
earlier did mention abt output buffering as a way around.
TIA

I think because it breaks the back button (explained in more detail
later).

Well, if you use a header("Location: ..."); redirect there's no point in
sending anything to the browser because no one is going to see it.
If some output is required to be seen by the user you should just put a
link to the next page and not worry about a redirect at all.
OOORRRR, at the very least, give the meta-refresh a time of about 5
seconds or more so that the back button is not broken. I think the
problem with meta-refresh is that if you try to do an instant refresh
(like the way header(); works) you'll prevent the user from being able
to click the back button since every time they try to go back and reload
the previous page (in their mind they are wanting to go back to the page
BEFORE the redirect page) it will immediately send them back to the page
they were just on because they hit the redirect page first.

Again, this has already been mentioned three (3) times in this
thread alone, just to re-iterate since this thread is all messed
up and overly responded to....

Yes, output buffering is what you would do. I would recommend
programming around using output buffering and if you cant then
rethink your logic.
and on a side note, technically you should also send html with your
header('Location: /url') for browsers that either are unable to
redirect or have automatic re-direction off.
Ok.. now I'm even more guilty of keeping this thing alive. from now
on I am ignoring all messages in this thread :)

Sure.
> using headers in php requires that no output is sent to the browser
I think this is what is causing you trouble, as this is incorrect. You can have
output and HTTP headers. In fact, that is what happens 99.9% of the time (or
more). Even when you don't specify headers yourself, you can be sure your Web
server is sending some.
You can use meta tags instead of HTTP headers in many cases, and most browsers
can accomodate this. People are most familiar with using it in substitute for
the Refresh header, but many headers can be sent in meta tags this way.
Of course, since we are PHP developers and can modify the *real* HTTP headers,
there is no reason for us to use meta tags instead. Doing so is a lot like
using JavaScript to perform logic that is more appropriately done in PHP. While
many developers still do this, the more experienced ones generally don't.
Hope that helps.

Zerof, Comex is absolutely correct. exit() should almost always be used in
conjucntion with header("Location: "). I would be interested in learning
what "collateral effects" you see when doing so. By any logic exit()
should reduce the number of adverse effects when using header() redirects.
Consider this example..
<?
if($i==10){
header("Location: $nextpage");
}
$_SESSION['i'] = $i;
?>
If we were to employ this code $i would be set to the session even if
header() was called and the user was redirected. PHP does not care that
another script has been launched and happily continues to execute this
script. Is this really a desirable effect? No.. surely not. Instead what
we should do is exit the script after redirecting the user.
<?
if($i==10) {
header("Location: $nextpage");
exit;
}
$_SESSION['i'] = $i;
?>
Now we're safe becuase nothing beyond the header() call is going to execute.
Obviously this is an extraordinarily simple example. But most scripts are
not so straight forward. If you don't exit after a header redirect you
could be causing yourself one hell of a headache.
Be wise and have one script running at one time.

Thanks. The same file on Linux PHP 4.3.2 produces the same output. The
manual is correct: variable names in PHP are case-sensitive, full
stop. It is not dependent upon the OS.
This is explained here:

Thanks for the Win test, Comex!

You can find out if /something is a directory by connecting to the web
server and request the file/directory without a trailing slash. If it is
a directory server will respond with "301 Moved Permanently" response.
$is_dir=false;
$sock=fsockopen('server', 80);

while (!feof($fp)) {

Please dont attatch* your php file and expect us to read your code
figure out what you want to do then tell you what to do.
Explain what you are trying to do, and if needed give us small (10
or so lines timed down to do the task) sample of how you go about
it. Your success rate in getting help will be much higher.
*Your file was not attatched properly, please attach file properly
if and when needed.

Use a path relative to your httpdocs for your error document, e.g.
ErrorDocument 404 /myerrorpage.php
instead of
ErrorDocument 404 http://mysite/myerrorpage.php
David.
Unfortunatelly this is not what I mean.
Have a look on this:

A php page is redirecting this 404 error to another page, but I would like
to have
the URL stay the same like it is done on php.net
Can anybody help?

I think it is. When you use a relative path in the .htaccess, the URL will
not change, but you will be redirected. Therefor you can use
$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] in your 404-page to check what the visitor was
looking for.

mod_rewrite can do that.
Or:
header('HTTP/1.0 307 Temporary Redirect');
header('Location: /uri/to/file');
?>
<a href="/url/to/file">moved here</a>

<rfc2616 section="10.3.8">
307 Temporary Redirect
The requested resource resides temporarily under a different URI.
Since the redirection MAY be altered on occasion, the client
SHOULD continue to use the Request-URI for future requests.

I havn't tested it but the behaviour for the client is specified.

with ErrorDocument 404 /myerropage.php
The url wont change if the 404 doesn't do any redirection. I've
never tried a 404 to an external page, I don't think its possible
(too lazy to look at apache's docs atm).

Then don't redirect to another URL but rather display whatever it is you want
to display. If nothing else, you can simply fetch the alternate URL for the
user like this:
readfile('http://www.google.com/');
Hope that helps.

Have you tried toggling each one seperatly to see which one is
causing the overhead. My bet would be the safe_mode since it has
extra work to do.
If that is the case safe_mode is VERY expensive, or something is
wrong. I hope (nothing personal) that there is something wrong with
your php scripts, because that is too high of a price to pay for
safe_mode.

Since 5 is beta 1, i'm not sure all the documentation is
(officially) out on it. If your concenered about details the
php-dev list might prove useful.
This is the only thing I found, i didn't look to hard:

Yes... on Windows. But it's unstable, don't do it.

How about you can get a the world's fastest PC, a 64bit server that handles
8gig of memory that can run cicles around any wintel based machine and still
use all the *nix software without having rewrite anything for say $3k.
That's with 10/100/1000 ethernet ports. It already has hugely more installed
base than Linux (7 million) and can still run all your favorite MS software
even Windows OS if so inclined-- as an additional application. There is no
server/user license fees from the manufacturer. For bigger projects, thing
like Oracle are available. It doesn't require a whole new staff of certified
(READ $$$$$) staff to manage and maintain. In fact, $1k a year can buy you
30min 24/7 phone response and 4hr business hours on-site response time
factory service.
For $6k you can put fibre channel 1.25T of raid data. If you really need a
GUI for all the *nix stuff and perhaps don't care to unload or compile from
source, a "Server" option for $500 will give you all kinds of GUI interfaces
to the settings, again- unlimited users.

Good policy. This will guarantee a check in the end :)

Well, yes, that does work. And it's an acceptable workaround (I've already
updated my code). It's nice in that it let's me keep the keys that match my
database columns.
However, it's really just that: a workaround. I'd still love to know why I
can't register certain variables and have them stick outside of that one
function. I think I will never find out.
Thank you very much for a very direct alternative.

which HTTP version are you requesting? I know that if you send a
HTTP/1.1 then a lot of servers send the data in chunks, thus your
retrieval code needs to be different. If it is HTTP/1.1 try using
HTTP/1.0 instead.

Have you tried smaller requests mabey 512? although that shouldn't
matter, but you might be able to see if it is getting data back at

Same difference with the 1.0, I was using 1.1, here is the complete request
