note 112635 added to security.globals

To make older scripts working in 5.4, you can use the following snippet for simulating register_globals: <?php if (substr(phpversion(), 0, 3) == '5.4') { foreach ($_REQUEST as $key => $value) { $$key = $value; } } ?> Now configure your Apache (or just use php.ini) - there's a great setting auto_prepend_file to include your snippet to get executed in front of _every_ php script execution. <Directory "/var/www/somedir/"> php_value auto_prepend_file /var/www/magicstuff.php </Directory> Now you've register_globals back ;) ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.199 Probable Submitter: 77.190.87.118 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/security.globals.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/112635 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112635/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112635/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112635/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112635/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112635/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112635/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112635 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/112635 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
