Hi I suppose you mean register_globals is off and should be on, right? Ok, to make this short, do following: create a file "php.ini" on your desktop and write following into it: register_globals=on
Make sure you have unix-linebreaks (use BBedit for example, or pepper) and a linebreak at the end of the line. Save the file and open the terminal. Enter root cp /Users/<yourname>/Desktop/php.ini /usr/local/lib/ apachectl restart Now try it again. Register_globals should now be on. As another one has written, enable_track_vars is always on. I use the same installation (entropy.ch) for php :) cya Stefan Rusterholz Am Dienstag den, 11. Juni 2002, um 09:02, schrieb Mario A.
