I did this:
if (!empty($_POST)) {
extract($_POST);
} else {
extract($HTTP_POST_VARS);
}
And have it in an include file, "extract_post.php".
This way I can just include it and all variables are available, just like if
register_globals had been on.

Egads! Wouldn't the following be a little simpler?
At the top of the file put.....
if( is_array($_POST) )
$pArray = $_POST;
else
$pArray = $HTTP_POST_VARS;
Then access $pArray["fred"] where ever you want to? And yes, I know
this creates a second copy of the post array in local memory (wouldn't
pointers be nice right about now), but if the post array is going to be
accessed a lot, it would seem to be faster to copy it once than to call
the function over and over. :)
