Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-13 12:33:20] philip@php.net It's true, the default value for the register_globals directive in php.ini-dist is now off, not on. The examples don't depend on register_globals, the actual text does. Am changing docs now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-13 05:54:25] bwieboldt@t-online.de I found on page http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.http-auth.php an explanation of how to use $PHP_AUTH_USER to authenticate a user. Unfortunately, in PHP 4.2.1, this variable is no longer in use, as shown on page http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php#reserved.variables.server Thank you ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=18328&edit=1
