PHP constants reference

[=X¥®µ§=]

I would have thought this question was asked before, but I couldn't find any posts with it so here it is:
Is there any place I get a FULL list of the php constants like$PHP_SELF and referer etc?
And I don't need this: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.constants.php
or this:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/languag....predefined.ph
The first one is not what I mean, and the second url is not complete at all, even $PHP_SELF isn't given there.

So does anyone know a complete list?
thx,

Create a php file with this in it: <? phpinfo(); ?> and run it.

[=X¥®µ§=]

it gives a lot of constants, but e.g. not
HTTP_REFERER...
I really want one with all constants/vars..

[Anarchos]

It has HTTP_REFERER.

[=X¥®µ§=]

it doesn't have it here...I sent you an e-mail (the address you have given sitepoint) with the url (I don't think it's the best idea to show it to potential hackers...)
if you can find it there then I'm just blind as a bat

my server admin will prolly have it disabled, but that doesn't help me

this still doesn't give me a list with ALL constants, even the one that are disabled

[Anarchos]

It won't output HTTP_REFERER if there isn't one. So to test this, make a page called test.html with a link to phpinfo.php. Click the link then search (ctrl-f) for test.html and you'll find the variable.

[=X¥®µ§=]

yes indeed, but is it NOW a full list? are there now no more other constants? or are there more constants like this?

[Anarchos]

There's stuff like HTTP_GET_VARS AND HTTP_POST_VARS but those are listed on http://php.net/manual/en/language.va...predefined.php

[=X¥®µ§=]

thx

but I really think it's strange that there are no site wich post them all...php.net has such a great manual but not all the constants are given, I think that's really strange :/

I think it's discrimination the functions are all given

[=X¥®µ§=]

heh
just found something
they ARE mentioned in predefined variables lolz

[Anarchos]

Well here's a script I just made that gives you a list of all global variables and their contents:

displayIt($GLOBALS);
function displayIt($myArray){
    ksort($myArray);
    foreach($myArray as $key=>$val){
        if (is_string($val))
            $val = str_replace("<br/?>","",$val);
        echo "<b>$key</b>";
        if (!is_array($val))
            echo "[$val]";
        echo "<br />\n";
        if (is_array($val) && $key != "GLOBALS"){
            echo "<blockquote>\n";
            displayIt($val);
            echo "</blockquote>\n";
            }
        }
} 

[=X¥®µ§=]

thx, but it gives an error with me, on
function*displayIt($myArray)
this line

[Anarchos]

Which version of PHP are you using?

[=X¥®µ§=]

PHP/4.0.4pl1

[Anarchos]

I guess it's because I'm using 4.0.5...

[=X¥®µ§=]

I'm trying to connect to my f2s account (don't know wich version they use, maybe 4.06 or 4.05) but they are down again

I hope I can connect soon, so I can use your script

[Anarchos]

What's the error?

[=X¥®µ§=]

f2s uses the same version as my server

The error is a parse error on this line:

function*displayIt($myArray)
so maybe $GLOBALS is the problem?

[=X¥®µ§=]

I just installed 4.06 (on my own box - not on the server) and executed the code within phpEd
still gives the parse error

[Anarchos]

Weird, try this version I suppose:

<?php
function displayIt($myArray){
    ksort($myArray);
    foreach($myArray as $key=>$val){
        echo "<b>$key</b>";
        if (!is_array($val))
            echo "[$val]";
        echo "<br />\n";
        if (is_array($val) && $key != "GLOBALS"){
            echo "<blockquote>\n";
            displayIt($val);
            echo "</blockquote>\n";
            }
        }
}

displayIt($GLOBALS);
?>

[=X¥®µ§=]

parse error, same line

[freddydoesphp]

It might help to post the exact code you tried using, someties the code can get transformed between your cut and paste job. I am sure it will help to see the relevant code as you percieved it.

[Anarchos]

There isn't a parse error in the script, so either you're copying it wrong or there's some other difference between our setups. If you upload the script and the source I can check it out.

[freakysid]

Oh yeah - I'm on a Mac, and I cannot just cut and paste code from these forums into a script. Gotta massage all the line-breaks/carrige returns into shape.

[=X¥®µ§=]

ok, I've uploaded the file and the code
code=http://www.rlgaming.com/php/Noname2.htm
file=http://www.rlgaming.com/php/Noname2.php

I've changed the format a little bit, so it's more readable (still don't understand why peeps use that -what do they call it again- format) but that shouldn't be any problem, I always code like that, never gave me problems. And I got the same parse error on your coding style...I really don't think it has to do with a wrong copy/paste..

My guesse is that the $GLOBALS is the problem...
