Why does this surprise you? $_SERVER is an array with string indices,
one of which happens to be the string 'QUERY_STRING'. However, your
code is trying to reference a constant named QUERY_STRING that does
not exist. The code will work because PHP will assume you meant to use
a string instead of a constant, but this will also generate a notice
to let you know that the code should be fixed.
