Hi,

Is there a recognised (ie. reliable) way for a script to test
if it is being run from the command line or through a web server ?

My guess whould have been :-

if (isset($_SERVER))

THEN it is being run from a web server.

But this may also be set when run through the CLI ?

Any suggestions ?

Thanks,
John.
