[RESOLVED] htaccess conditional statement

[Studio_Junkies]

I have this setting in my htaccess file:

php_flag magic_quotes_gpc  0 
php_flag magic_quotes_runtime 0

I have based my program around this, and I don't want to turn it on.

I am trying to integrate phpshop, I require access to the session array so I simply

<?php
require_once ($rootDir.'public_html/phpshop/index.php');
?>

This allows me to access globals as I want, however, PHP shop requires magic_quotes_gpc enabled.

Is there a way to do this? I understand magic_quotes_gpc cannot be enabled at runtime, so I need to know how to set a conditional statement in the .htaccess file. Something like

!(phpshop/) php_flag magic_quotes_gpc 0

. . . or any other suggestions?

Cheers

.htaccess files in subdirectories override settings made in superdirectories

So you can keep the .htaccess in the root directory that will be active as a general setting and put another .htaccess with different settings in the subdirectory /phpshop/

Yeah I thought that should've worked, but it doesn't.

It is ok if I put it in an iframe with src="/phpshop/index.php", but then the session is unavailable.

I am not familiar with phpshop.. so I cannot understand why the session cannot be available. Perhaps it requires a session_start() ? Or the initiating page may have to be in the /phpshop directory too?

Nevermind, I think I have hacked it by instatiating my own session class first. At least I can access the value I need now. I would have liked a tidier solution though.

Cheers.
