basic install questions

Recommended Posts

Will this cart work with register_globals off?

 

How does it handle magic_quotes_gpc? I have it off.

 

The install instructions mention uploading to the catalog directory. Is that required?

 

The install instructions mention that the database name is osCommerce. Is that required?

 

Will the cart work in safe-mode?

 

Does the cart handle the ECHO payment gateway (POST w/ SSL)?

 

Is the Wiki stuff the documentation?

No

 

Yes

 

the catalog directory can be any directory (even root)

 

No, I think you can change the name during install...if not, then in one of the configure files (/includes/configure.php I think).

 

hmm....safe mode....yes and no. Depends on the functions that are disabled. Try it, if you find something broke, comment it out if it's not necessary.

Yes, somehow wiki = documentation...there should be a link in upper right named Wiki Effort.

Thank you for taking the time to answer.

 

1) Crum. Now that php is being delivered with this off, is there something afoot to support register globals off? If not, any recommendations? If I were to write a bit of code to define variables, which GPC arrays would I need to process? $_POST, $_COOKIE, $_SERVER? Would I need process $_GET?

 

2) I didn't word the question very well so the response can be taken two ways. Let me try again: Will it work with magic_quotes_gpc off?

 

3) Great, Thank You.

 

4) I didn't see anything so I guess I'll just give it a go

 

5) I take it that there is no writeup on what will and will not work. I also take it that the basic functions will work.

 

6) I looked there. Didn't see it listed. I poked around the contributions area and did see something there (like 5 of them) but the last one was empty.

 

7) OK. Strange name for documentation though.

 

Thanks again for the replies,

the next major release of osC will (alledgedly) have register globals off, so until then, change hosts, or . . . i wont say that part, lol . .

magic quotes on in a php.ini file are used for get/post of cookie data

also for runtime=generated data from sql . . .
