#28274 [NEW]: register_globals removal petiton

From: raniz at gmx dot net Operating system: All PHP version: 4.3.6 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: register_globals removal petiton Description: ------------ As register_globals does create som security issues, and therefore is recommended to be turned off. I think it would be for the best if it was removed completely in the future. It also seems like register_globals is causing a lot of trouble for coders new to PHP (at least on the forums I hang). And I think many of them would disappear if register_globals were to be removed. I'm not saying I wan't an immediate removal, marking it as deprecated in the manual and removing it in a few versions would probably be the best. /Raniz -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=28274&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=28274&r=float
