Finding the HTTP_HOST...

[Bammy217]

Heya folks.... I seem to have a problem with some code....

I want it to fill up this string :

$BASE_URL = "

http://$HTTP_HOST/filemanager";

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong??

D.

We never fail, we just find that the path to succes is never quite what we thought...

What PHP version are you using?

After 4.1.0 use:
$_SERVER[SERVER_NAME];

Before 4.1.0 use
$HTTP_SERVER_VARS[SERVER_NAME];

It is best to use the $_SERVER array than relying on deprecated vars such as $PHP_SELF and $HTTP_HOST.

This way your code will be portable.
