PHP Notice: Undefined index: REQUEST_URI

What server are you on? And what version of PHP?

Dave Baldwin

$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] is available on Apache and IIS.

Here are two pages/programs that will display all of the SERVER variables available on your server. One is in Classic ASP and the other is in PHP. I added a third in a simple version of ASP.NET in case the Classic ASP doesn't run. The three programs will show slightly different results but they will show you what is available for those languages.

This seems to be the IIS only

I see all the complaints in Google but I get $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] with PHP 5.2.17 on both IIS5.1 and IIS7.

Please install this script on your server and post a link to it here so we can see how things are configured. This will be faster than guessing about your setup. You can take the script down later. Thanks, ~Ray

suggestion works on both versions of php that I have used

now I can use $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']
on php5.2.17

Dave Baldwin

Note that it isn't PHP but the server that reports that info to PHP. Different servers report different variables and some can be turned off by the people running the server. You can use the programs I posted above to see what your server reports.
