Hello,

I've got to put the flag (to "false") into bootstrap because I've a lot of
forms with " array('viewScript' => '../helpers/edit.phtml'," and I'm in a
hurry to deliver the app to production stage. I'm sure this is a bad
practice (? or can I leave it so...).

In other hand, I'm reading about LFI but don't understand where to fit this
into a situation where a user can set the script path. Could you explain a
real scenario where the user provides this (the script path where he wants
to go)?

Thank you so much.
