I'd rather strongly suggest this value not be in the registry. What happens in the case were two different applications are installed on the same machine, and both use PHP - but different versions and with different libraries? You really don't want machine-global settings. This isn't a theoretical question! :) We will be using PHP in our application and need to be certain that any changes the customer makes to there global use of PHP does not crater out application. We can get this assurance by using a local copy of PHP in our application, with a local "php.ini" file. Instead I'd suggest that the settings stay in php.ini, but that PHP look for php.ini first local to the installation of php.exe. I posted a (tested!) patch a few days back to do exactly this. -- Preston L.
