nginx Listen port 8080 -- $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] shows "443"

CA3LE

New Pleskian
I have nginx listening to port 8080, the site opens fine but in php $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] is being detected as port 443 -- $_SERVER['HTTPS'] is also set. I ultimately need $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] to show as "8080" for my application to work correctly. (long story why I even need that)

This worked fine before using nginx. I would add Listen 8080 in my httpd.conf and when you'd visit the site on port 8080 I was able to detect that... now it thinks that 8080 is 443.

Under "Additional nginx directives" I have

listen 8080;

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? How can I get nginx to tell apache that it's port 8080 not 443, so that php can pass the correct port number to the $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] variable.
