The reason that it is in the $_SERVER array is because all of these are actually set by the web server. PHP has nothing to do with these. Trying to decypher which variables the server gives us were triggered by the client and which ones weren't would be a mess. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-12-28 21:27:25] mako281 at gmail dot com Description: ------------ I think there would be some benefit in separating Client information (ie. HTTP Request Information, User-Agent, User Auth Information) from the $_SERVER superglobal and creating a new superglobal called $_CLIENT. Nothing major, but I think it makes logical sense. (btw, PHP Version is irrelevent, but it wouldn't let me select that option) :P ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50598&edit=1
