[Resolved] include() with register globals on

[joe_C_nice]

I've got a rather simple question.

Why does this work with register globals off.

include($dir.'includes/'.$_SESSION['file'].'.php')

And not with it on.

[joe_C_nice]

any ideas??

Not sure, because I never use PHP servers that have register_globals set to "On". Whenever I install PHP, I always turn it off.

If register globals is on, try this instead:

include($dir.'includes/'.$file.'.php');

otherwise, keep register_globals off; it's better that way anyway 😉

It's left off on my server. It's just the person who's server this is being used on has it on.

Well, you can set register_globals to off in a .htaccess file... other than that, I don't know.
