Re: [Bobs-devel] bobs on redhat 8, with apache 2

[Rene R. <re...@gr...>]

A few examples of what needs to be changed:
getenv("DOCUMENT_ROOT") is now:
$_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]

Variables should be be like this:
before: $username
now:	$_POST['username'] (or $_GET['username']  depending on the type of
form method used)

Sessions are a problem too.
to register a session:

if (!$_SESSION['srvcfg']) {
        $srvcfg =3D new server();
        $_SESSION['srvcfg'] =3D $srvcfg;
}
to use it without changing every instance with refers to it:
$srvcfg =3D &$_SESSION['srvcfg'];

I'm not sure this is a "best pratice" way of doing it, but it worked in
my tests.

Some of this will cause problems with php versions older than 4.0.6
unless we spend some time on making it work in all 4.x versions
