Mahngiel Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 why on earth would you want to set a user submitted value as a global? why are you even using globals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xyph Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Well, rather than help you find the solution to your problem, do you mind us trying to show you a better alternative to this? Also, please include more of your code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessica Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Your function should return values if you need them outside of the function. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFMaBiSmAd Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Arbitrarily setting program variables, named directly from externally submitted data, without any limits/restrictions or validation of the name, would allow a hacker to set any of your program variables to anything he wants.
