I'm running PHP 4.1.2 + Apache 1.3.23 + PostgreSQL 7.2. I've tried reverting back to globals=on, and same problem. Yet, earlier in another script I used $sfname = $_GET['sfname']; to get the value of sfname -- now, it won't work. I'm truly stumped -- I don't know whether it's my code? [I beginning to think it isn't because of the flakiness of the php.ini failing to report changes accurately]
I've dumped PHP and re-installed it, but the same problem persists. Now for the big question -- what's wrong with globals=on anyway? Eventually the site will be public, and probably the host won't allow globals on, but what's the security risk? You say $_SESSION[] and $_POST[] are always on -- even if globals are on? Can I verify what all the variables in the array are? Where would I look? By the look of things, I've got a major problem -- but I don't know where to look. Help? Please?
