you can turn register globals off using htaccess, i dont have an example for
you but that should fix it.

Subject: [PHP] set global working??
Not quite a mystery, but I wondered if anyone could throw a couple of
suggestions my way.
My client's websites were moved last year from an old php server to a
newer one. At that time, I had to upgrade all her scripts because
set_globals were off on the new server, and so I went to using
$_SESSION variables. All seemed to be doing fine until sometime last
week when the scripts on a new website I am working on, being hosted on
her server, started flaking out. Variables were becoming persistent,
retaining previous values and refusing to change.
I checked the php settings and found that the version running on the
sever is 4.1.2 with globals on. That surprised me. I don't have admin
access and would be cautious about trying to change this and possibly
messing up someone else's site.
Anyway, to test my theory, I created a simple script that turns
session_start on and off. If session_start is off, variables work fine.
With session_start on, variable will change once, and then refuse to
change. I've attached the script.
Does this indeed mean that I have to go through all my scripts and
comment out session_start and convert my $_SESSION defines back??
Yeachh!!
