PFMaBiSmAd Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Classes and functions have their own local variable scope and should not directly be affected by register_globals. It's also possible that you are using such an old version of the phpmailer class (your's is from the year 2003) that it could be importing main program variables into its local variable scope. It's more likely that your code has same name cookies/variables/session variables and register_globals is overwriting your data. Why do you even have register_globals ON? What happens when you turn them off?
