The following bug or feature (not yet sure what it is ;)) is related to the scope of global
variables.
SYSTEM:
I use PHP 4.0.6 on Win2k pro as i downloaded it from this web site.
The loading of extra modules does not change the described behaviour.
The Server API is Apache (Apache V. 1.3.22 win)
PHP.INI:
register_globals and register_argc_argv is ON
DESCRIPTION:
I have the global variable $PHP_SELF.
Now i include a file where I want to use $PHP_SELF.
Within the included file, $PHP_SELF is unknown (it has lost it's global state), and i have to
declare it global again.
This appears for any other global variables too, $PHP_SELF is just an example-
This behaviour seems to be new to PHP 4.0.6, because i didn't have the problem with 4.0.5.
