How to turn off Register Globals???

[Dr.Scoo]

I uploaded a script on a web site that i created it.
a setting is called Register Globals is on so the script isn't running, instead i have a message "Register Globals is ON".
so do anyone know how to turn it OFF????

try this,i dont know if it works

You are able to turn 'register_globals' on and off via a simple php.ini file.

If you wish to turn it on, create a file called php.ini and within that file add the following line;

register_globals=on

However, should you want to turn it off, you would simply use the following line instead;

register_globals=off

Once you have edited the file, upload to your web content directory that you wish to have the variable set.

since u want to know abt php,my friend is a freak when it goes to php and he told me to post this abt turning off register globals

Just open your .htaccess file and add this line in the end of it:

php_flag register_globals off

for example:

##
# @version $Id: htaccess.txt,v 1.5 2005/01/22 23:00:27 spacemonkey Exp $
# @package Mambo
# @copyright (C) 2000 - 2005 Miro International Pty Ltd

#
#  mod_rewrite in use
#

RewriteEngine On

#  Uncomment following line if your webserver's URL 
#  is not directly related to physical file paths.
#  Update YourMamboDirectory (just / for root)

# RewriteBase /YourMamboDirectory

#
#  Rules
#
php_flag register_globals off

In addition you may need to create (or edit) a php.ini file in your joomla! root directory.
The file should contain this line:

register_globals = off

Register Globals Emulation

In addition to turning off register globals, you should turn off register globals emulation.
Edit your globals.php file:
At about line 23 change
define('RG_EMULATION',1)
to
define('RG_EMULATION',0)
