Another reason for using Rev CGI for the OnRev server.  I am using both.
The irev scripting is nice, but it is in beta, so changes are sure to be made.

With CGI, you can install an engine (eg. Linux 3.5) and use that one forever, thus no shifting conditions.
Andre's auto-installer works great.

I also believe that all the $_SERVER variables are available including custom HTTP headers that a web page programmer or Rev programmer might want to use for security or special conditions.

Of course, I also like custom properties and arrays, so uploading a stack that contains all the parameters in props is good for me. Very fast and reliable.

Hope this helps this thread.
I wonder about the  $_SERVER variables differences.

okay, it is down to this... browsers send the date header to the server, it
is mandatory but the date header is not being passed to the $_SERVER
variable, which means they are not passing all the headers as they should.

they are just passing some of the http headers, they should simply loop all
sent headers and pass them to the $_SERVER variable.

Damn!!! When I checked, I used firebug to see what my browser is sending, and the date header is there as expected, it is just not being parsed by the
revserver engine.

As for getting the clients time using RevServer files check out the
variable
$_SERVER["Date"], it will contain a timestamp from the browser
perspective.
Hope this helps.

I can't get $_SERVER["Date"] to return anything, although that would
be really useful.

I have a test page that lists all the elements of the $_SERVER array
that it can find:
<http://www.troz.net/onrev/samples/test.irev>
but it doesn't include a DATE entry.

I would imagine that since On-Rev is server-side scripting, it would
have no way of getting the time & date from the calling browser. I
would expect that this would need to use JavaScript (client-side
scripting) which interacts more directly with the browser.

Cheers,
Sarah
