New Comment:

This note is written in "The CLI SAPI does not change the current
directory to the directory of the executed script" part. So it's right
- you can achieve this CLI behavior in CGI with -C switch.

I changed "the CLI SAPI" to "this CLI SAPI" for your convenience.

Description:
------------
The portion of the PHP manual entitled "Using PHP from the command
line" states that "The CGI SAPI supports the CLI SAPI behaviour by
means of the -C switch when run from the command line.":

http://us2.php.net/features.commandline

However, "php -h" says of the -C switch, "Do not chdir to the script's
directory".

Further, running php -Cr "echo 'test';" results in an error saying that
the -r switch doesn't exist, even though it should if it were acting
like the cli version.

So.. the doc would appear to be wrong.
