That's true, the URL does not appear there as a single preset variable; 
it's up to you to re-assemble a URL out of the variables that are 
available, and thus the need to scan the vars phpinfo() has to offer.  
Since you're using PHP as a CGI, somewhat different variables get set than 
when PHP is run as a module, so a call to phpinfo() is the best way to 
identify the right vars for accomplishing your task.

Question: before you dismissed phpinfo() as useless, did you call it and 
look at what's there?  Because more than likely the info that you envision 
extracting in a two step process (access URL, break down into needed 
components) can be directly accessed from one or more environment/server 
vars.
