CGI variables?

[Former Member]

Hi,

I was searching all over the (wrong?) place, but I don't seem to find how to retrieve typical CGI vars like:

- REMOTE_ADDR (I want the ip addresse of the server running the htm)

- REQUEST_PORT (same as above, the port)

- SERVER_NAME (same as above, but then the name)

- SCRIPT_NAME (the name of the htm running)

- HTTP_REFERER

- HTTP_USER_AGENT

And something else: how can I retrieve the "version number" of the WebAS within a BSP? 640 is sufficiant.

Check out this thread Eddy

Should find your answer in a link provided in the second or third to the last reply I believe.

or just go here:

Guess what. I had the pseudo header fields page in front of me for setting stuff in the header and I didn't realize that I could also get stuff. It's not my day I guess. I'm getting old

And the version numer is of course SY-SAPRL

I'm missing HTTP_REFERER and HTTP_USER_AGENT though. Any suggestions?

request->get_header_field( if_http_header_fields=>user_agent )? etc.

Why not look at BSP application IT00, page misc_echo.htm?

Anyway, any chance to retrieve the referrer somewhere?

[former_member181879]

request->get_header_field( if_http_header_fields=>referer )?

You have to keep in mind that this header field is not always there. Typically, on the first incoming request it might be missing. Also, some proxy tools will filter this header out, as it can tell you a lot about where the user has been.

Also, do not overlook that spelling mistake: referer (as defined in RFC for HTTP) versus referrer (English language).

Hey Eddy

I know how you feel

Don't worry though everyone has days like this.
