#188 Register Globals

[Tim Slighter]

It has been over 2 months with no response for this -
so I am going to reissue this ticket to see if anyone
provides a solution.

Phphelpdesk does not allow anyone to login with
register_globals = Off.

Our Apache server requires that register_globals="Off"
for security reasons and for all other scripts to work.
"On" is not an option.

Does anyone have any recommendations on how to get this
to work without setting globals to "On" ???

Thanks

Set REGISTER_GLOBALS ON per script / web folder

Let's assume you are using an older version of PHPADSNEW
which does not support REGISTER_GLOBALS OFF settings. The
path to this script on my web server was:
path: /home/jds/public_html/phpadsnew
Solution using a .htaccess file

I created a .htaccess file and uploaded it to:
path: /home/jds/public_html/phpadsnew/.htaccess

from http://www.desilva.biz/apache/regblsoff.html
inside this .htaccess file I typed:
code:

php_flag register_globals on

This only works if you're using PHP as an Apache module and
you'll need AllowOverride Options or AllowOverride All
privileges on it.

Once you have completed uploading this file to the phpadsnew
folder, everything should work like before! This is actually
an Apache directive so, if you're using anything but the
Apache Web Server, you're on your own, buddy

n.b. The latest version of PHPADSNEW already supports
REGISTER_GLOBALS OFF settings.

I set the .htaccess in the URL/phphelpdesk folder.

Thanx for the tip!
