Variables like that are contained in the $_SERVER and $_ENV suprt-global
arrays. Here's a handy trick for finding out what they are:

<pre><?php
print_r($_SERVER);
print_r($_ENV);
?></pre>

Run the above code on your web server and you will see the contents of the
above arrays, making it easy to pick out the variable you need.

Cheers,
