alright,
i am realizing something.
PATH_INFO variable is used to form a value for PATH_TRANSLATED variable by the "web server" to get the physical path for the virtual path in PATH_INFO variable.
now as this is done by the web browser the application script is free of doing any processing and can directly access the PATH_TRANSLATED which makes the application script task little easier, right? so thats the purpose of having PATH_INFO instead embedding such information in the query
string. if that information is in the query string then the application script needs to process it...
am i right in this derivation?
