Re: Help - Register Globals

Hi Jason, thanks for the reply. Perhaps I've missed the point somewhere. We have Windows applications which use the Microsoft Browser Control and create/post URLs such as: webserver/webpage.php?User=uuuuu&Pass=ppppp&Var1=xxxxx&Var2=yyyyy etc. These applications are running on the LAN where the user has already logged on with their username and password. The above will not work if Register-Globals=Off. We don't want to use Register-Globals=On because the webserver is also open to the rest of the world where the users log on before getting to the web page.

It's possible, kind of ... ... but, I'm curious as to what would be the purpose of such a setup. It could make debugging slightly easier but I really can't think of any *real* reason. Perhaps if you say what kind of problem you're trying to solve there may be a more obvious solution. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * ------------------------------------------ Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general ------------------------------------------ /* You've always made the mistake of being yourself. -- Eugene Ionesco */
