Re: apps that need register globals 'on' and others require

I remember a problem like this with 4.1.1, is it still present in 4.2? Register_global = Off ==> Use session_register("var"); Register_globals = On ==> Use $_SESSION["var"] = "value"; Is that still the case for 4.2, or can you do it either way? ---John Holmes... ----- Original Message ----- From: <php3@developersdesk.com> To: "Philip Olson" <philip@cornado.com>; <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Tuesday, April 30, 2002 11:39 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] apps that need register globals 'on' and others require Addressed to: Philip Olson <philip@cornado.com> php-general@lists.php.net ** Reply to note from Philip Olson <philip@cornado.com> Tue, 30 Apr 2002 22:45:49 +0000 (GMT) > > Btw, I can't think of a reason why a script designed > with register_globals = off would not work with it > on.

I believe that if register globals is on PHP looks at the global variables to write registered variables else it looks to $_SESSION. I did not track down the exact reason I can't use $_SESSION with register_globals = on, I just dropped back to using session_register(), but I did have a problem.
