Bug #4399: With no php3.ini, magic_quotes_gpc is 'Off'. With one, it's default is 'On'.

From: wilsonjb@library2.webster.edu Operating system: Red Hat Linux PHP version: 3.0.15 PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: With no php3.ini, magic_quotes_gpc is 'Off'. With one, it's default is 'On'. I'm not sure if it's correct to describe this a documentation problem, but it is a case where the documentation disagrees with the reality. The documentation indicates that: "All the values in the php3.ini-dist file correspond to the builtin defaults (that is, if no php3.ini is used, or if you delete these lines, the builtin defaults will be identical)." -- from the comments at the top of php3.ini-dist I found this to be untrue in the case of magic_quotes_gpc, which was Off until I copied php3.ini-dist to php3.ini (The only change I made was to add this line: gpc_order = "GP"). --Joyce Wilson
