PHParser Changes

CHANGES

fixed a bug to safely quote environment variables before parsing. Thanks to Steve Piner who sent me a patch.
removed debugging output in PHPGateway.py as well.

added a wait() call aftering calling PHP CGI to avoid zombies. Thanks to Klaus Braun who sent me the fix.
added support to apache rewriterule + virtualhost monster. Thanks to Maric Michaud for sending me the patch.
default PHP CGI location changed to /usr/bin/php due to the fact that RHEL4 has a PHP CGI there.

Actually supports Win32. (1.0.0 didn't)
Fixed the blank page (0-byte) problem on some Unix platforms.
Enhanced PHP-Gatewaying. Only PHP scripts are parsed! Other contents are served statically.
PHPGateway now works with SiteAccess product for providing a pure PHP virtual host.
Now supports HTTP authentication. (default is off for security reason)

No more variable rewritings. PHParser now calls PHP CGI like a webserver.
Posted form data is supported correctly. (It was broken in 0.9.0)
File uploads are supported.
Cookie and session are supposed to work too.
Now supports PHP 4.3.0 and up.
A new type of object PHPGateway comes together with PHParser. It can be used to publish web pages under an entire folder in the file system.

Passing REQUEST.other to PHP as a new global variable $ZOPE_VARS.
Passing REQUEST.environ to PHP as $HTTP_SERVER_VARS.
QUERY_STRING is then passed as-is, no longer reconstructed from REQUEST.form as it is was in 0.20413. Parameters will go into $HTTP_GET_VARS.
Posted parameters will go into $HTTP_POST_VARS.
Passing REQUEST.cookie as PHP's $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS.
Fixed a bug in PHP CGI under UNIX that $HTTP_SERVER_VARS actually contains the value of $HTTP_ENV_VARS.
The product works for PHP4 and is aware of the changes to Predefined Variables beginning from PHP 4.1.0. It means modern PHP scripts can use the values of $_GET, $_POST and $_REQUEST.
Those rewritten $HTTP_xxx variables will be made globally available exactly in the way PHP does if PHP's register_globals directive is set. So PHP scripts depend on something like $username and $id will still work as before as long as register_globals is set to On and variables_order set to the desired value in php.ini.
$PHP_SELF is now a partial URL and duplicated to $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF'] to be consistent with pure PHP environment. And $PHP_SELF is always a global variable regardless of the register_globals setting.
Smart UNIX/DOS end-of-line detection. The new PHParser will be running on both Windows and Unix platform without the need to modify the PHPEOL line in PHParser.py.

Added decoding of returned PHP-Headers. Now you can use Header("Content-Type: image/png") and Header("Location: http://www.zope.org") in your PHP-Scripts. Creating images with the GD-Image-functions should now work out of the box...;-).
Improved the construction of the QUERY_STRING. This should give better results for FastCGI-ZOPEs and mixed POST/GET-REQUESTs (used by some wired PHProgrammers). Thanks to Sandy Mantel!

Fixed a bug so that a PHParser was not callable by other methods. Changed the points of calling the __phparser__ in the DTML to PHP to HTML to CACHE chain.
Now you can set the Path to your PHP-CGI-Interpreter with the PHPath-Variable, if ZOPE can't find it through the environment (mainly needed for Windows).
