Hi, Im trying to add a modification to osCommerce. It turns out that quite a few of these mods require the register_globals to be turned on for them to work. I guess in previous versions it was on by default. Can you possibly turn this on in php.ini?

Thanks,
Scott

Odd, it's on for me.

i just made a script "<?=$a;?>" and called it by file.php?a=b and it printed "b"

Hmm...ok its probably just something im doing wrong or something wrong in the mod im trying to apply then. I don't know enough about php to know for sure though. I read that the register_globals thing could have something to do with my problem. At least I know to start looking for other things that could be causing it. Thanks alot for looking into that for me!

Well, I wouldn't neccissarily discount it right away. We might be on different servers, it being on for mine and maybe off for yours.

I guess we'll see when someone comes that can help you better.

Both of you are on different servers, but just so you know all of our servers have the register_globals turned on in the php.ini file.
