Register long arrays
From DreamHost
In DreamHost's installation of PHP 5, the register_long_arrays directive is not enabled. As a result, scripts that make use of the following array variables will not work as expected:
$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS$HTTP_ENV_VARS$HTTP_GET_VARS$HTTP_POST_VARS$HTTP_SERVER_VARS$HTTP_SESSION_VARS$HTTP_POST_FILES
In PHP 6, neither the register_long_arrays directive nor the old $HTTP_*_VARS array variables will exist at all, so any script which still uses the old variables will need be updated eventually!
The following table lists alternative variables:
| long_array name | alternative |
|---|---|
$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS
|
$_COOKIE
|
$HTTP_ENV_VARS
|
$_ENV
|
$HTTP_GET_VARS
|
$_GET
|
$HTTP_POST_VARS
|
$_POST
|
$HTTP_SERVER_VARS
|
$_SERVER
|
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS
|
$_SESSION
|
$HTTP_POST_FILES
|
$_FILES
|
