ID: 25940 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: Reiner dot Proels at laposte dot net -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Session related Operating System: FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p3 #1 PHP Version: 4.3.3 New Comment:
In PHP 4.2.0, the 'register_globals' setting default changed to 'off'. See http://www.php.net/release_4_2_0.php for more info. We are sorry about the inconvenience, but this change was a necessary part of our efforts to make PHP scripting more secure and portable. Please, read about register_globals in the documentation.
