[wp-hackers] REQUEST_URI on IIS isn't SCRIPT_NAME

Thanks for the reply, Alex... But are you sure?
Because REQUEST_URI *is* set on IIS (contrary to what my first post
implied), but it doesn't return the requested URI, rather the actual script
being run.

Try this:
Create an index.php that echos REQUEST_URI and put it in a folder.

Calling that folder: http://mydomain.com/foldername/

on Apache or Lighttpd will echo "/foldername/"
But on IIS it will return "/foldername/index.php"

...

:(

The code fragment in my last email kinda works, except if you're in the root
dir it gives issues....
Using mod_rewrite for now.. :(
