Re: [PHP4BETA] cvs: php4 /ext/standard/

At a minimum, it needs a SAFE_MODE check in there, and SHOULD be configurable via the ini file such as 'DL_ALLOW_ABS_DIR'. Allowing absolute paths in dl would be a bad thing in a shared environment, but as long as configurability is there, it doesn't hurt to have it. thies@digicol.de wrote: > > On Mon, May 08, 2000 at 08:12:28AM -0000, Thies C.
