register_globals problem

[kergadic]

Hi,

I would like to enable the $PHP_SELF variable
so I've turned the register_globals option on and then restarted the apache server
but when I look up the phpinfo() result register_globals is off !?

what can i do ???

Thank you

Greg

You need to reboot the server, but it is not necessary to turn globals on to get at $PHP_SELF. You can get at it through your code with either of these commands on top of your page:

extract($_SERVER);

OR

$PHP_SELF=($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);

EDIT: OH, you already DID reboot the server. I dunno 'bout that one then...
