    Hi,

    When I have a page not found in Apache I can have it redirected to a custom
    ./error.php file and I can use $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] to get the file that
    was not found.

    But as some of you might know, IIS does not have '$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']'.

    So what is a 100% secure way of finding the path of the requested uri using
    IIS?

    What I was thinking of doing is

    if $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] exists the return it
    else
    if $_SERVER[QUERY_STRING'] exists strip the relevant info from it and return
    the data
        but how do I know for certain what the format will be? in my case,
    (IIS6) I get
        $_SERVER[QUERY_STRING'] =
    404;http://www.example.com/unknown_page.php?var1=12&var2=14
        but it that the case for all of them? shall I return anything after
    '404;'?
    else
    return self?

    I obviously did a search on google, but most example/work around just don't
    work or don't achieve the expected result.

    Many thanks.

    Simon
