Passing a variable out of .htaccess

How do you pass a server variable out of the .htaccess file into your script?

This dosent work:

Code:

ErrorDocument 404 /modules.php?name=404_Error&uri=%{ENV:REQUEST_URI}

I'm trying to pass the requested URI that generated a 404 error to my .php script to proccess the error.

I cannot do this in the .php file because the environment variables are not the actual ones that caused the 404 in the first place.

Code:

if ($notify_admin==1) {
$subject = "404 Error Report";
$mailheaders = "From: $from\n";
$mailheaders .= "Reply-To: $to\n\n";

$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$requri = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$servname = $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];
$httpref = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
$httpagent = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];

$combine = "IP: ". $ip . " tried to load " . $servname . $requri ;
$today = date("D M j Y g:i:s a T");

$message = "$today \n
$combine \n
User Agent = $httpagent \n
$httpref \n
"._404_TURNOFF."\n";

mail($to, $subject, $message, $mailheaders);
}

So, I must catch them in the .htaccess file and pass them to my .php file, but I don't know how.

Thanks,
Darrell

Try changing

Code:

$requri = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

to

Code:

$requri = getenv ("REQUEST_URI");
