register_globals must be off

[JHobbs]

Hi All,
I have just installed some software that requires that the register_globals setting must be off in the PHP.INI file.

I use $DOCUMENT_ROOT in part of my web site. Is there a good alternative that I can use that doesn't require the register_globals setting?

Thanks in advance

$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']

Thank you for your response.

That worked just fine; however, I have another problem now. How can I grab the results of my query string?

Is there another array that holds those values?

[devinemke]

you should really do some reading on predefined variables

$_GET['variable']; did the trick. Thanks for the tip
