Just a note: in the PHP 4.1.0 phpinfo() output, all the
predefined vars are printed as _SERVER and _ENV members,
except PHP_SELF, it is printed alone, and not in any
array. This must be corrected!

Valid point. I'm reopening this as a documentation problem.

Hi All,
Thanks for the replies. The docs tell me that using globally registered vars presents
a security risk and is being turned off in future versions anyway, so it's quite
necessary to get accustomed to it.
Using $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] must be the way to go.
However, where to find proper documentation on these 'new' vars ? I can't find them,
only some pages mentioning they exist..

The correct way would be to use $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ; this is guaranteed to work with
and without register_globals = off.

Then don't turn register_globals off. Turning off register_globals gets rid of all
the globals. If you still want some, leave it turned on, but simply set your
variables_order directive in your php.ini file to reflect which globals you want. For
example, if you want environment and server variables, set it to "ES"
