System-defined Variables
| [Previous] [Main] [Next] |
|
| |
| The htmlCgi (htmlServer) class offers access to several server-specific pieces of information as member variables. The following member variables, unless noted otherwise, are all String objects. They are commonly defined by most web servers as CGI environment variables, though your particular server may or may not include all of them. html++ applications can use the information contained in these variables to customize behavior or to implement advanced features, such as tailoring document contents based upon the client IP address.
