Hi Robert,

Please check the need to replace $PHP_SELF and revert it if needed.
The said variable is a clean value of $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] and in some 
instances made as $thisfle.
It is globally declared in AdoDB:
classes/adodb/adodb-pager.inc.php (lines 60/63)
classes/adodb/adodb-perf.inc.php (line 919)
and in
classes/calendar_jl/class.calendar.php (line 62)

There were a total of 44 files referring to $PHP_SELF prior to your updates.

Regards,
Ap.Muthu
