Hi,
how can I check in PHP wether the globals are registered on or off?
A short code snippet would be nice ;-)

Bye

take a look at

Code: Select all

<?php
var_dump(ini_get('register_globals'));
?>
with different values for register_globals

Code: Select all

if (ini_get('register_globals'))
{
   //register_globals on
}
else
{
   //register_globals off
}

Further to Volka's answer and relating to finding out even more information about how PHP is setup...

If you want to find out information like this on your own installation of PHP do a search in your files and have a look at your php.ini file. Alternatively you could try putting

Code: Select all

<?php phpinfo(); ?>
into a file and running it. That'll tell you everything you need to know about how PHP is configured and what's been enabled and what hasn't (and you can look at this even if you don't have access to the php.ini file, if for example you want to look at your host's PHP config).

Thank you
