[PHP] is register globals off ready for prime time
Working on a project where we have an off shore developer. We are runnig 4.3 and have turned register globals off. He says that this option is not ready for production use and breaks php internally. I have never heard this before. Has anyone heard this, or experienced this. -- Ray Todd Stevens Specialists in Network and Security Consulting Senior ConsultantSoftware audit service available Stevens Services Suite 21 3754 Old State Rd 37 N Bedford, IN 47421 (812) 279-9394 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thought for the day: Dictatorship (n): a form of government under which everything which is not prohibited is compulsory.

It may break certain programs that were written and are expecting register_globals to be on, but that's it. ---John W. Holmes... PHP Architect - A monthly magazine for PHP Professionals.

[snip] Maybe it breaks _his_ code, but it is off by default since I believe 4.1.0, and IMHO _should_ remain off at all times. Too easy to inject into your code as to MHO.# Either this guy is trying to deceive his own weak code, or he doesn't have a clue of how PHP works. I'd reconsider hiring such a developer. -- O Ernest E.
