PHP Question

[jsobeck]

I was trying to install a PHP script and got an error, it says that the Function register_globals is off. Is there any way it can be set to on? (I realize this is probably a specific question for Corey.)

register_globals is set to off by default as it's a security risk, i'd be surprised if there was any free host that had it set to on.
A script that needs register_globals turned on is a very insecure script. Which script was it? There may be a work-around.

It's a PHP program called Quasars Storage. And it's no big deal if register_globals can't be turned on, I can always use something else, this one just was the best so far that I found.

Remember, you cannot allow your users to upload files. Just download ;-)

There are plenty of other download managers in PHP.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind and just use something different.
