+[IMPORTANT NOTICE]
+------------------
+This is an addendum to README.TESTING with additional information 
+specific to server-tests.php.
+
+server-tests.php is backward compatible with tests developed for
+the original run-tests.php script.  server-tests is *not* used by
+'make test'.  server-tests was developed to provide support for
+testing PHP under it's primary environment, HTTP, and can run the
+PHP tests under any of the SAPI modules that are direct executables, 
+or are accessable via HTTP.
+
+[New features]
+----------------
+* Command line interface:
+  You can run 'php server-tests.php -h' to get all the possible options.
+* Configuration file:
+  the -c argument will allow you to use a configuration file.  This is
+  handy if you are testing multiple environments and need various options
+  depending on the environment.
+  see server-tests-config.php for details.
+* CGI Emulation:
+  Will emulate a CGI environment when testing with the cgi sapi executable.
+* HTTP testing:
+  can be configured to run test scripts through an HTTP server running
+  on localhost.  localhost is required since either the web server must
+  alias a directory to the php source directory, or the test scripts
+  must be copied to a directory under the web server 
+  (see config options TEST_WEB_BASE_URL, TEST_BASE_PATH, and TEST_WEB_EXT)
+* New sections supported for test files (see below)
+
+When running tests over http, tests that require ini settings different that what
+the web server runs under will be skipped.  Since the test harness defines a number
+of ini settings by default, the web server may require special configuration to
+make testing work.
+
+[Example Usage]
+----------------
+Some (but not all!) examples of usage:
+
+1. run tests from the php source directory
+    php server-tests.php -p /path/to/php-cli
+
+2. run tests using cgi emulation
+    php server-tests.php -p /path/to/php-cgi
+
+3. run tests over http, copying test files into document root
+    php server-tests.php -w -u http://localhost/test -m /path/to/htdocs/test
+
+4. run tests over http, php sources have been aliased in web server
+    php server-tests.php -w -u http://localhost/test
+    
+5. run tests using configuration file
+    php server-tests.php -c /path/to/server-tests-config.php
+
+6. run tests using configuration file, but overriding some settings:
+   (config file must be first)
+    php server-tests.php -c /path/to/server-tests-config.php -w -t 3 -d /path/to/testdir
+
+NOTE: configuration as described in README.TESTING still works.
+
+[New Test Sections] 
+----------------
+In addition to the traditional test sections 
+(see http://qa.php.net/write-test.php), several new sections are available 
+under server-tests.
+
+--POST--
+This is not a new section, but not multipart posts are supported for testing
+file uploads, or other types of POST data.
+
+--CGI--
+This section takes no value.  It merely provides a simple marker for tests
+that MUST be run as CGI, even if there is no --POST-- or --GET-- sections
+in the test file.
+
+--DESCRIPTION--
+Not used for anything, just a section for documenting the test
+
+--ENV--
+This section get's eval()'d to help build an environment for the 
+execution of the test.  This can be used to change environment
+vars that are used for CGI emulation, or simply to set env vars
+for cli testing.  A full example looks like:
+
+  --ENV--
+  return <<<END
+  PATH_TRANSLATED=$filename
+  PATH_INFO=$scriptname
+  SCRIPT_NAME=$scriptname
+  END;
+
+Some variables are made easily available for use in this section, they
+include:
+  $filename     full native path to file, will become PATH_TRANSLATED
+  $filepath     =dirname($filename)
+  $scriptname   this is what will become SCRIPT_NAME unless you override it
+  $docroot      the equivelant of DOCUMENT_ROOT under Apache
+  $cwd          the directory that the test is being initiated from
+  $this->conf   all server-tests configuration vars
+  $this->env    all environment variables that will get passed to the test
+
+
+--REQUEST--
+This section is also eval'd, and is similar in nature to --ENV--.  However,
+this section is used to build the url used in an HTTP request.  Valid values
+to set in this section would include:
+  SCRIPT_NAME   The inital part of the request url
+  PATH_INFO     The pathinfo part of a request url
+  FRAGMENT      The fragment section of a url (after #)
+  QUERY_STRING  The query part of a url (after ?)
+
+  --REQUEST--
+  return <<<END
+  PATH_INFO=/path/info
+  END;
+
+--HEADERS--
+This section is also eval'd.  It is used to provide additional headers sent
+in an HTTP request, such as content type for multipart posts, cookies, etc.
+
+  --HEADERS--
+  return <<<END
+  Content-Type=multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------240723202011929
+  Content-Length=100
+  END;
+
+--EXPECTHEADERS--
+This section can be used to define what headers are required to be
+received back from a request, and is checked in addition to the
+regular expect sections.  For example:
+
+  --EXPECTHEADERS--
+  Status: 404
+
