- QUESTION:
- PHP - Register Globals Off
ANSWER: - Why won't my php script see the variables passed to it from the previous page in the url ?
ie: http://yoururl.com/script.php?arg1=value
Yes this is the way it is supposed to be for SECURITY REASONS.
register_globals is turned off and that is the way it should be for
security reasons.
What you should do instead of turning your register_globals on is try to write your scripts using the superglobal GET.
or if you use a form you can also use POST, but GET is the best (at least in my opinion) because it does'nt require a form.
BUT, if you HAVE to do this, you can set your register_globals option set to ON:
just change the
line "register_globals = Off" to "register_globals = On"
You need to create a file called php.ini and place it within each directory that you need to change options.
All you need is the following
php.ini
register_globals = On
register_argc_argv = On
safe_mode = On
magic_quotes_gpc = Off
and any options as needed, same format as they appear in the servers main php.ini
