[PHP5 Security Block!!]

Thats great thanks, how do I do that?

 

I have set up a htaccess file to tell it to upgrade to PHP5.  My host requested me to do this.

 

But I can not include pages in that same folder.  So do I need to add something to the htaccess file.

 

Do I add this: allow_url_fopen = on to that .htaccess file?

Thanks,

 

My page reads this.  "URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration"

 

I have found this but it relates to include which works: http://www.learnphponline.com/errors/url-file-access-is-disabled-in-the-server-configuration

 

I have in a few places that you shouldn't switch the option on because it cancels the securiry measure.

[PHP5 Security Block!!]

I had a website running a XML script which worked perfectly but I have updated it by using XMLReader and PHP 5. However, there is a security update on PHP 5 which prevents me from accessing files on my server.

 

Someone has suggested I add a php.ini file with the following:

 

allow_url_fopen = on

 

allow_url_include = on

 

However I have also read that the whole purpose of the security update is to prevent this. Can someone advise me how I can get around this issue so that my server can read files and still operate by the PHP5 security update.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
