PHP has lot more users. ;)There's a big difference between changing some rare features (and no, 5.3 needs - almost no to - no changes with the code bases I know) and removing something *everybody* uses. Apart from the fact that _REQUEST is not evil per se, the new setting request_order turns it into something sane again... So please let's end (at least the public) discussion here ;-)Not *everybody* uses it. a) Once again I'll use python as an example, you -can- break backwards compatibility to finally break free of certain stigmas
b) Would it be possible to tweak request_order so if it is blank, it does not even create $_REQUEST? That I suppose would be good enough for me.Just leave request_order empty in your php.ini and $_REQUEST will be empty. Now, please stop spamming the list about this issue. --Jani
