AndyB Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 The link you left doesn't work (for me).Best guess is that the script works when register_globals is ON (bad practice). The best solution would be to recode the script to run with register_globals OFF (the more secure setting). The sloppy solution would be to look at the extract() function to retrieve form or URL-passed variables around your scripts. The awful solution would be to change the setting of register_globals.All that's assuming that register_globals really is the problem, of course.
