POST is being sent tp /php4/php.exe

[Anon]

hello,

i have apache, php4, mysql running on win98.
a page that has post action results in the browser being directed to:

htpp://myurl.com/php4/php.exe

(the post should be pointing to it self Action = $PHP_SELF)

where php4/php.exe does not exist on my domain. i just installed apache and am trying to learn it.

any comments?

Win32 executes PHP outside the server, so all pages are preceeded with /php/php.exe. Just strip this from the variable like so:

$pagename=str_replace("/php/php.exe", "", $PHP_SELF);

then you'kll be left with the directory and page name e.g. 'index.phtml' or 'dir1/page.php3'
