Hi David,
This may or may not be helpful for your specific situation, but I wrote
a $_SERVER compatibility layer into Cake in the form of an env()
function, which you can check out here:
https://trac.cakephp.org/browser/branches/1.2.x.x/cake/basics.php#L978
It's not super-comprehensive, but it covers the basics, and uses
fallback accessors if the $_SERVER variable is disabled entirely (I know
Yahoo! does this, as there are some advantages in reduced overhead).
Thank you! This is sweet! Right now I use my script in a 'controlled'
environment as I am the only one who uses it. I do plan on releasing it
to the public at some point, especially after adding the modularized
internationalization and the context sensitive help portion that is
intended to work with MadCap Flare's WebHelp.
I need to make sure that it likely works on various servers and not only
on a specific XAMPP version on the first Monday in March if the Friday
before was full moon and the tide in San Diego is right.
I doubt it will be a big problem, after all there are as many PHP based
image galleries as lines in Cake's basic.php.
I will need to investigate which keys/values I end up using in $_SERVER.
Gee, we manage to standardize toilet seats, why not environment variables?
David
