peterr Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Hi, What does a 'phpinfo()' tell you about 'register_globals' ? Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterr Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Hi, Just code the following in a PHP script. <? // display all the PHP info phpinfo(); ?> and run it, then see what the register_globals values are. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterr Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Hi, When you run phpinfo(), the location of the file PHP.INI, is usually right up the top, for me, it is the sixth row, and states: Configuration File (php.ini) Path /usr/local/Zend/etc/php.ini Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 I found it in /etc But I already change the register_global => "ON" May be I use OpenOffice to edit, so the file has problem. Anyway, how can i fixed it?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterr Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Hi, I found it in /etc But, did 'phpinfo()' state it was in "/etc" ?? But I already change the register_global => "ON" I had a look at a PHP.INI, and the line is: register_globals = On May be I use OpenOffice to edit, so the file has problem. Maybe, .....try Crimson Editor , it's free and has syntax highlighting for PHP files, so it's a nice tool to use for osCommerce. Anyway, how can i fixed it?! Check that your 'phpinfo()' display path name is "/etc" , maybe PHP doesn't like the "ON', because here is what the file states: ; Boolean flags can be turned on using the values 1, On, True or Yes.; They can be turned off using the values 0, Off, False or No. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
