Sounds good. If the move is made, leave the PHP variables on this page ($_POST), and have the web server variables list (REMOTE_ADDR) in the appendix. If feasible, an example call to phpinfo() on php.net might prove useful too. _maybe_. Consider integrating a few examples of popular server variables, such as REMOTE_ADDR and HTTP_USER_AGENT, when explaining $_SERVER.
