register_globals On = a bad thing to do ??

[olle]

i also had problem with that Error 200 with my loginscript :S when i turned register_globals to On, everything did work as it should. Is it bad security when register_globals is On? Shall i keep it on, or can i do some changes in my script?

<?php
$anvandare ="thomas";
$losen ="holmstroem";

if(isset($skicka))
{
if ($anvandarnamn == $anvandare && $losenord == $losen) {
echo "You do have access now :D";
}
else
{
echo "Hmms, trying to hack? :P";
}
}
?>

Yes , you can change the script , depending what you need to change , I
have provided some easy ways of doing this , I use this in my PHP code.

$_POST['variable_name']

This will be commonly used as the post method in a
form so make sure its set to post if you use this.

$_GET['variable_name']

This will be commonly used as the get method in a
form so make sure its set to get if you use this.

$_SERVER['env_variable']

This is commonly used when you want to use the built in PHP
Environment Variables so you can track someone's IP Address.

Ok from all the example's above , im going to show you the most easiest
way to add these to your code , this will set normal variables for you. Later!

$post = $_POST['post'];
$get = $_GET['get'];
$serv_env = $_SERVER['serv_env'];

Just place the variables that you changed to the top of your PHP script.
