How PHP sets variables in $_SERVER, say, $DOCUMENT_ROOT? What should I know
if I want to modify $_SERVER myself?
Once your script starts the superglobals are no different to any other
variables, except that they're in scope at all times.
That's probably the reason why they are named SuperGlobals. :-)
But to be more descriptive, these are simply globals that are predefined by php
-- see:
http://php.net/manual/en/language.variables.superglobals.php
I believe, (please show me otherwise) there are no globals in PHP other than
SuperGlobals.

you may find it weird, actually very weird, but is the following possible
load up a post or page into the admin panel and place something like
this in to the editor;
?php
//assume exec-PHP already active
$current_page_url_here = get_current_url();
echo a href='{$current_page_url_here}?var1=val1'click me/a;
if ( $_GET['var1']=='val1' )
{
//change the current post's html title to titleval1/title
without using javascript/jquery
}
?
so when the visitor, clicks on the click me, same page reloads but
this time, the title reads val1, and that's what search engines see
too.
and if it is also possible to change, the_title() to be equal to val1,
that's even better.
But, is such a thing technically possible? Or is it too late at that
time to make those changes?
Could ob_start in any shape or form be deployed here to achieve this goal?

Based on the terms you're using it sounds like this is a Wordpress
question. You'd have a lot better chances of getting an answer if you
query a group of WP gurus/geeks.

This is not a WYSIWYG editor question; WYSIWYG editors are things
like KompoZer, Dreamweaver, FrontPage, and even web-based things like
TinyMCE, et al.
That aside, try this very basic example (and expounded) and see if
it's what you're trying to achieve:
?php
echo 'title';
if (isset($_GET['title'])) {
echo $_GET['title'];
} else {
echo 'The title has not been set!';
}
echo '/title'.PHP_EOL;
echo 'a
href=http://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?title=Enter+your+title+hereChange
Title/a'.PHP_EOL;
?

Dear all
i'm trying to handle a max timeout into a file_get_contents request,

ini_set('default_socket_timeout',10);
$ctx = stream_context_create(array('http' = array('timeout' = 10)));
$data = file_get_contents(http://www.foo.com/server.php,0,$ctx);

*** server.php *** placed on www.foo.com at

?php
sleep(15);
echo OK;

i've noticed that in a standard scenario if i call
http://test.foo.com/client.php all works properly and the timeout is
handled correctly.
But, if i'm experiencing dns lookup problems, the timeout setting is
ignored by file_get_contents, or more probably the socket isn't yet
estabilished so the counter for timeout doesn't start.
I've been able to reproduce this problem on a linux server dropping
incoming packets of DNS with this command: (be careful, it will
disable you ability to resolve all dns address!):
* iptables -A INPUT -p udp --sport 53 -j DROP
* iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --sport 53 -j DROP
So, the question is:
is possible to have a timeout check that includes also dns resolution time?
Thanks to all in advance
I don't think this is possible with file_get_contents, but it should
work if you use cURL and set the CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT option.

That won't help. When you reach the sleep with your request, the
connection is already established.
What you want is curl with
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT max execution time

There is some information about configuring php to use a proxy when
connecting to external urls.
According to some sources the proper setup option is by using
the stream-context-set-default function (
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.stream-context-set-default.php)
Still I have not been able to find any reference about if it can be set on
php.ini (so all the instances of php use it)
Also there is this bug that has been assigned since 2010 and still have not
changed (29280)
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=29280
Any information about this will be well received.

Hi,
AFAIK there's no such setting in php.ini. If you want to have it set
allways, you could use the php.ini setting auto_prepend_file to run a
simple php script (containing stream_context_set_default) before each
php file is parsed.

Then all you should need to do is:
a.) Verify that Domain A is indeed pointing to Domain B, to
the script you expect, as a POST request.
b.) In the POST-receiving script on Domain B, try this simple snippet:
?php
echo 'pre'.PHP_EOL;
var_dump($_POST);
die('/pre');

That should give you all data from the post request.

Thanks Dan.
As it turned out the reason for not showing the passed values is that
I didn't have www in the destination address and the values must
have been getting lost when Apache redirected requests without www to
the fully formed URL.
