OsCommerece Problem - Server Requirement Error

[Node1]

Server Requirement Error: register_globals is disabled in your PHP configuration. This can be enabled in your php.ini configuration file or in the .htaccess file in your catalog directory.

Can someone help me to fix this? :rant2:

Seems we've had an influx of these posts lately so I'll do two things:

1) use the search feature. It helps.

2) Register globals is turned off for server security. Having it turned on can allow an illicit user to gain information that would be _bad_ for them to have (I'm not a server admin and dunno exactly _what_ they could get, but I'd also not like to find out by having my data deleted by said illicit user).

You're basically stuck either finding a host that has register_globals enabled, or by finding another commerce system that doesn't require register globals.
