[FX.php List] fx.php and BBEdit Syntax Checking

[Jonathan Schwartz]

Bob,

Good question.

 From my readings, I get the impression that the PHP_SELF method is a 
preferred method than just using the real name.  One advantage I know 
of: it allows pages to be renamed without having to go through the 
code to *also* rename the self-links.  That makes the code more 
modular.

There might be some security advantages also, but I can't tell you 
what those are.  Perhaps others can.
