Re: [Mrbs-general] PHP 4.2.3

Bill,

I accept the buggy bit, but turning register_globals off is just as 
insecure. I'm sure they changed the default for a reason, which is why 
I'm going to be doing the recoding.

That and the fact that the client I'm doing it for won't set 
register_globals on. :)

I suppose I was just offering Elaine an easy, prepackaged way out.
