Still working on my first Windows deployment of a PHP site...

All my instances of $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] are coming back with an echo.

E.g. what should be
/dev/admin/about-us.php

is instead displaying as
/dev/admin/about-us.php/dev/admin/about-us.php

Which obviously isn't going to work.

Any idea what's going on?

    No, not without seeing how this is happening. Are you saying that the script

    <?php
echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
?>

    does this?

      Yep - echoing $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']

      I did a print_r on $_SERVER and discovered that SCRIPT_NAME was giving me what I wanted - both on the Windows server and my local OS X machine, so I just replaced PHP_SELF with SCRIPT_NAME globally for this site.

      Still, it's weird.

        Even if that is the entire script?

          That is indeed quite odd... what version of PHP are you running? Also, can you paste the output of this:

          <?php
var_dump($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
?>

          I realize you've found a workaround, but I think it's quite odd that a PHP-filled variable is going haywire like this...
