After upgrading to php 5.5.1 and apache 2.4.6, checking for certain headers is now broken (specifically, checking for HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH
).
Through further testing I noticed that any custom header that contains an underscore is ignored (by this I mean it does not show up in PHP's $_SERVER
array). So if I add a header named my-header
, it becomes available as $_SERVER['HTTP_MY_HEADER']
, but if I try adding a header my_header
, it's not available in $_SERVER
.
