Re: [PHP] Why my $SERVER_NAME variable is not working anymore?

Yes, I know that is risky to keep working that way, but the projects I made were so small that its not worth to change all the code just to improve security! Any help will be welcome.

Re: [PHP] Why my $SERVER_NAME variable is not working anymore?
Thanks John for your quick answer. What I'm looking for is for a miraculous way to convert or adapt my existing code. I already detected where are each one of my lost variables. I just want to know if the only way I have is to manually replace every old variable by the new one. Hope not.

Gabriel You can turn 'register_globals' on in the php.ini, but it would be better to leave it off, and change your code. -- By-Tor.com It's all about the Rush http://www.by-tor.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

But now, php 4.3.x says that $a is undefined, and is forcing me to declare/make use of a variable before I can mention it. $a=''; if ($a=='something') Please reply to the list, and not just me. That way, when someone else who has this problem will be able to search it in the archives. Okay, this is the error reporting level. In the php.ini you can set 'error_reporting' to E_ALL ~E_NOTICE to get rid of the warnings, or you can turn 'display_errors' to Off (restart of web server needed for the changes to take effect). Of course, it's still better to write your code to where you don't get these warnnings. -- By-Tor.com It's all about the Rush http://www.by-tor.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
