Description:
------------
Filter related functions don't detect any variables when I use INPUT_SERVER input type although they are set in $_SERVER  array.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

$var = 'SERVER_NAME';
var_dump(filter_input(INPUT_SERVER, $var));
var_dump($_SERVER[$var]);
var_dump(array_key_exists($var, $_SERVER) == filter_has_var(INPUT_SERVER, $var));


Expected result:
----------------
string(9) "localhost" 
string(9) "localhost" 
bool(true)


Actual result:
--------------
NULL 
string(9) "localhost" 
bool(false)

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5.2-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.2-win32-latest.zip

It was not supported with all SAPI in 5.2.0.

Please try with a snapshot and tell us which SAPI/server you use)

I've just found at http://devzone.zend.com/node/view/id/1113:
server and env support may not work in all sapi, for filter 0.11.0 or php 5.2.0

It seems it isn't bug but I think it should be mentioned in PHP documentation at least.

Yes that's why I suggest to try using a snapshot, the SERVER support has been improved. I wrote this article, there is a link in the docs note, the docs will be updated soon to reflect the new changes or additions.

Please try with a more recent version.

I can't provide any additional feedback as I will not try a snapshot in the near future.

Thank you for clarification.
