Well, I have this in my .htaccess file, so it SHOULD work, but this will
depend if your host allows things to changed via .htaccess.
<IfModule mod_php4.c>
php_flag register_globals on
</IfModule>
You can place this in your root directory, and it will work for your whole
site, or place it further down the file hierarchy to only work from a
certain directory down.
Once you've done that, I'd recommend doing the OPPOSITE on your local test
server:
<IfModule mod_php4.c>
php_flag register_globals off
</IfModule>
And spending some time updating your scripts and libraries to suit the "new"
way -- I had heaps of stuff that didn't work, updated it all, and I really
do prefer the "new" way, because I know where every var comes from.
