This is a very quick tip for showing your server, configuration and PHP settings.

A description from PHP.net

Outputs a large amount of information about the current state of PHP. This includes information about PHP compilation options and extensions, the PHP version, server information and environment (if compiled as a module), the PHP environment, OS version information, paths, master and local values of configuration options, HTTP headers, and the PHP License.

Because every system is setup differently, phpinfo() is commonly used to check configuration settings and for available predefined variables on a given system.

phpinfo() is also a valuable debugging tool as it contains all EGPCS (Environment, GET, POST, Cookie, Server) data.

Simply create the following PHP script and upload it to your server.

<?php

phpinfo();

?>

That is all.  Discuss this post in the PHP forum.
