Thank you for your answers. The hack seems the way to go, but I haven't found anything like this on the net. Presumably because the 'problem' is so new...
I have absolutely no control over my hosting providers settings, and I wish PHP 4.10 would just understand something like set_register_globals I haven't got that much experience with playing with variables at this level. What would do the trick is something like this: for all in $_GET { $[varname] = $_GET[varname] } Could anyone give me some pointers in actually programming this?
