Others have mentioned $_server[], I'll just add that you can see all the
names of the vars you can grab by using either

phpinfo();

phpinfo gives up lots of various information. You can use different
constants with it. See http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.phpinfo.php
for more info.

or you can implode the array's keys to get a list like this:

print implode(":",array_keys($_server));

Just replace $_server with a different array and you can see what keys it
has. You can use the same trick on multi-dimensional arrays like so:

print implode(":",array_keys($_server['first_key']));
