I noted in a previous post, you can also do this using
$_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] (though the first element from exploding will be
the first parameter, and not the script name) -- and, to my
understanding, this *does* work with IIS. (Somebody, correct me if I'm
wrong.)
Another note -- you can still pass a query string with either method --
which can make for some nice behaviour as well.
