Personally, I prefer "register_globals=Off" for session, but no objection here also.
'S' is Server not Session variables. Big difference. There is currently no real way to control session vars via variables_order.
I'm aware of that :) I would like to say session module is affected by "register_globals". "register_globals" feature make session module complex than it should be. If nobody objects, I'll happily get rid of "register_globals" feature from session module. However, there will be a lot of objections, so it's probably impossible, though :( I use track vars always. I couldn't understand why so many people are having problems with PHP4 session until I read session module source carefully. It behaves inconsistently if users use both globals and tracked vars. There are other problems. However, it will be a lot easier to maintain session module if there is no "resiger_globals" feature for session :) -- Yasuo Ohgaki _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
