Errors like register_globals = off but not caused by that

BillBlalock

Newbe here, at least with PHP. I have installed it on my PC at work, Win 2K and php version 4.3.0.

The problem that I am having is that I am getting errors which as similar to ones caused by register_globals = off. That is:

Notice: Use of undefined constant auth - assumed 'auth' in ...... on line 31

Notice: Undefined variable: action in ...... on line 65

However register_globals = on !! I checked php.ini and ran a quick script to verify this

The resulting page showed register_globals = On.

Does anyone have any suggestions where I went wrong?

Thanks
Bill

Please provide samples of your code for more details

These are just notices, no errors or warnings. Notices are triggered e.g. when you use a variable that has not been defined.

Check the error handling section in your php.ini file.

Hope this helps,

XBlue is correct. I was in a bit of hurry and didnt read the error.

Thanks folks. I see what you mean about the notices. I was caught by the differences in the default setting in php.ini between 4.2.3 and 4.3.0 for Windows.

In both cases I changed register_global = on but I didn't look at the error handling / warnings. The result was no errors reported in 4.2.3 and warnings in 4.3.0.

I appreciate the help!!!

I am having the same problems.

Try

magic_quotes_gpc - OFF
register_globals - ON

This has not solved all my problems, but I am making progress.
