Re: [PHP-DEV] Request for new feature: $HTTP_SESSION_VARS when register_globals = on
Quoting Sascha Schumann [EMAIL PROTECTED]: - but that does make it really messy to write code that works with either setting. Yes. Feel free to propose a solution which solves your problem and which is compatible to existing scripts. What about adding session_set_var (and session_get_var, for symmetry) functions to set and access session variables regardless of scope? -chuck -- Charles Hagenbuch, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Number of U.S. nuclear bombs lost in accidents and never recovered: 11 -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes, what you're saying definitely makes sense and I think it should be fixed.
