PHP 404 document's REQUEST_URI does not hold expected value in $_ENV and $_SERVER

Hello,

I wanted to migrate some custom 404 error pages from
shtml to php for the ease of email notification of lost pages.
However when PHP processes the page $_ENV['REQUEST_URI']
and $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] both now hold the error page eg "404.php".

Does anyone have advice on how to dodge this? Should I just continue to use
shtml error pages and
do an shtml include on a little php script to do the mail?

Any advice?

TIA

jg

All I can tell you is that in my setup above works as you desire.

Tell us a little more about your setup.

The only thing I do in Apache is a .htaccess with:
ErrorDocument 404 /404.php

Daniel,

Thanks for the response. Unsure what the issue was but twmtowtdi.

Solved like so:

// in 404.shtml

<!--#include virtual="./missing.php?uri=${REQUEST_URI}" -->

// mail done by php

Thanks!

jg
