note 99261 added to security.globals

If I am not posting this in the correct place, please point the way. Ok, I am fuzzy on this whole subject. If use of register_globals is not advised and now deprecated, how do I acquire the information it provides? Such as http_referrer and remote_addr. And what is the REAL risk of using it? I am one of those paranoid programmers, so I like monitoring what happens and who is doing it. Thank you. ---- Server IP: 66.207.199.35 Probable Submitter: 63.86.154.206 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/security.globals.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/99261 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99261/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99261/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99261/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99261/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99261/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99261/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/99261 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/99261 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
