Good code, however the best way of
keeping your script compatible and
secure would be to code it the good way.

that's totally right.
and that's what
i do now, when i start to code a script
from scratch.
but there are a million
(very useful) scripts to download out
there which were coded "the old way",
and that's where this snippet jumps in

If you didn't know, you can also enable
"register_globals" in your php.ini
file, which is disabled by default
since 4.2.0. I'll give this a try,
though ;)

register_globals is off for good
reasons, this is not the point.
as
long as you use 'old' scripts with PHP
>= 4.2.0 this script is more than
helpful.
for the future leave
register_globals off and start coding
the clean way.

Another thing you can do if you are
using Apache is add the following line
to the httpd.conf file or create a
.htaccess file.
php_flag
register_globals on

While this does work its a huge
security risk. When you use raw globals
PHP loads them from where ever it can
get it. So forms are easy to hack
aswell as other things.

ini_set('register_globals',
true);
wouldn't this do the same
thing?
