AFAIK ACTUAL_URL contains the full URL *plus* the query string.
VIRTUAL_URL
does not contain the query string. ACTUAL_URL was introduced on request
by
the Plone developers.
Except, the implementation did not end up including the query string -
which was the whole idea in the first place, to have ACTUAL_URL be "what
is in the address bar right now", so things like anchors work (did you
know there is no proper way of getting anchors to work in virtual hosting
setups without doing three conditional tests in your template?).
When I suggested that it should be fixed, people wanted to invent
*another* variable that included the query string, and it degenerated into
a "what should we name it" discussion after that. So that thing still has
to be "reinvented" in Plone, which sucks.
