I just came across this yesterday in fact. If you look in your php.ini file, you will see the following
; PHP 4.2 and less have an undocumented feature/bug that allows you to ; to initialize a session variable in the global scope, albeit register_globals ; is disabled. PHP 4.3 and later will warn you, if this feature is used. ; You can disable the feature and the warning seperately. At this time, ; the warning is only displayed, if bug_compat_42 is enabled. session.bug_compat_42 = 0 //yours is likely set to 1 session.bug_compat_warn = 1 Hope this helps. -----Original Message----- From: Matt M.
