Hello, after reading with more attention the 'bugs database', this bug is the same than http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=21312 (31/Dec/2002). Best regards, Nicolas Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-09 19:46:39] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php Set session.bug_compat_warn to Off and the warning messages you are seeing should go away. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-09 06:23:45] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, a strange problem, with session and register_global. The problem does not exist with PHP-4.2.3. When you have a variable set to a undefined value of $_SERVER array, and register_global set to ON, PHP set all variables to the same value (the last value). If you reload the page, there is no problem, it is only the FIRST time you read the page where there is the session variable is built. If you try with an unset variable, there is no problem. By the way, I don't understand the last message about "Your script possibly relies on a session side-effect..." when register_global is set to OFF.
