Could anybody explain what > the issue is, or point to where it's discussed? Currently, php replaces dots in paramter-names with underscores. This is a legacy of register_globals. As register_globals still can be enabled in 5.3, it is better to leave this replacement for consistency reasons (you can't have $a.b.c variable). In 6.0, on the other hand, register_globals is not available. So, it doesn't make sense to have replacement there too. 5.3 is left with status-quo: ?a.b.c=10 => $a_b_c, $_GET['a_b_c'] 6.0 will have: ?a.b.c=10 => $_GET['a.b.c'] > On Mon, Jan 12, 2009 at 11:56 AM, Lukas Kahwe Smith <mls@pooteeweet.org> wrote: >> - I guess we are not going to deal with "foo.php?a.b.c = 10" in 5.3.0 >> (should we put something on the 6.0 todo list for this?) -- Alexey Zakhlestin http://www.milkfarmsoft.com/
