('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) Hi,

as far as I know the elements of the $_SERVER array are filled by the webserver and therefore a manipulation through a php trick might by difficult.

>From my opinion it will be easier to alter this values through a trick on the webserver for instance by using a bug in Apache but I do not know about any which might do this.

Anyway, its quite a interesting point of view because many php scripts use the $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] value for their session management und maybe some other array items too.

But it would be also quite interesting if php uses the items of this array to do something or if its just an array with no effect for the php scripts. Does anybody know more about this?
