Yes, you can do that, however once the script ends, the variable is
gone. If you want to do it across requests you'll need to use sessions
or some other storage method (database, files, etc.)
If you want to set a server "variable" it acts more like a constant. For
instance, if you use Apache and have done something like:
SetEnv apache_var1=34
Then in (all) your php scripts, $_SERVER['apache_var1'] == 34
You cannot do something like $_SERVER['apache_var1'] = 63 and have the
next request produce that value...
