Hello, I think Michael's vision is right in this area, maybe bc could just be achieved having a "register_request" INI parameter that is set by default to OFF that people just have to enable if they rely on $_REQUEST. We could manage it the same way register_globals is: "This feature has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 5.3.0 and REMOVED as of PHP 6.0.0" Patrick -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
