Bug Type: PHP options/info functions
Operating System: UNIX 5.1 ALPHA
PHP Version: 4.3.5
New Comment:
Problem is not present against 4.3.4.
i.e. Following the same installation procedures and using the same
php.ini file, with register_globals=On:
- 4.3.4 reports register_globals as "On" (1 in echo) and allows the
webforms to be posted
- 4.3.5 reports register_globals as "Off" (0 in echo) and prevents
webforms from being posted

Description:
------------
I have some legacy scripts that require register_globals to be 'on'. I
had this working under 4.3.3 but upgraded this morning to 4.3.5 and it
no longer works, even though I'm using the same ini file.
Basic behaviour is that webforms generated by the PHP will not post -
i.e. variables created by posting are not available in the scope of the
PHP script. (We had this problem upon upgrading from PHP 3 to PHP
4.3.3 but it went away upon switching on register_globals.)
Running echo(ini_get('register_globals')) prints 0.
Running phpinfo() tells me that the path to php.ini is
/usr/local/lib.
In /usr/local/lib/php.ini I have register_globals = On and
safe_mode=off.
Configure line is: './configure'
'--with-oci8=/opt/oracle/product/8.1.7'
'--with-apxs=/usr/internet/httpd/bin/apxs'
Reproduce code:
---------------
echo(ini_get('register_globals'))
Expected result:
----------------
Expect it to print 1 when php.ini file says register_globals = On.
Actual result:
--------------
0
