Notice all hosted users about your plans, like turning off "register global" and other php functions, that u are going to change. For example, when u turned off "register_global" my web site stopped working, because i never thought that u can turn it off. But now (it tooked me 13 h of work) i have reprogrammed my web site to work with "register_global" off :?

So plz be so king and post a message what are u going to do in server about that, what could affect all users (like me, who developing my own scripts)

Thank u

Lixas

Yeah. It affected my site too. But I have a script that simulates the register_globals on and had to reprogram just some things like replace $PHP_SELF.
And I'm with Lixas. This kind of changes should be announced properly

Sorry for not making a formal announcement regarding it, coz usually it is adviced for all developers to code their scripts keeping "register_globals as off" in mind, so i didnt expect such a disaster in mind.

I assure you i would make such announcements clearer in the future if anymore required to be done.

Also i will just go ahead and make this announcement now
