Topic: register_globals

This is the second webhost that i use to disable this.  On the first webhost alot of things do not work....stats, newsfeeds using rss etc in phpnule no longer work.  And in another site using wordpress in the admin the wordpress news fails to show.  Will this change that my other webhost is also implementing affect blogcms and pubb?



"This is to let you know that as from 1 Feb 2006 the setting "register_globals" in php will be disabled.

This setting has been disabled by default for sometime as it poses security issues in certain php scripts.

Unfortunately if you site needs the "register_globals" enabled you will need to recode the script.

If you are using third party scripts, you are advised to get the most recent release, as most well known php scripts have already been recoded to work with the new php default settings.

We apologise for the inconvenience this may cause you"

Re: register_globals

I'm sure punbb can work with register global at off.
Don't know for blogcms.

Re: register_globals

PunBB emulates register_globals being off when it's on tongue
Very few recently written scripts should require register_globals
