Hi.
I would recommend re-writing the code that requires register_global s to be enabled. It is a security risk, which is most likely the reason it was disabled on your server, and having your code depend upon it is very very bad!
If, however, you are willing to risk it, check out the extract() function, which can be used to extract the super-globals at runtime, much like the register_global s property does. -
I've edited the title of this thread to make it a little clearer.
Please avoid using words like 'help' in your thread titles, as they make it less appealing to the Experts, as well as our other members.
