I love this one... extract($_REQUEST); but it undermines the whole reason PHP moved to the new default parameter specification. Be careful with you coding. I use it, and it makes things much like the pre 4.3.2 release without changing the ini files. You just have to specify the default $_server and file upload params. The other option is change the php.ini file for that dir or globally. - Paul -----Original Message----- From: Mignon Hunter [mailto:mignon.hunter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2004 12:56 PM To: php-db@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: php-db globals turned off How do most of you handle variables in next page after passing. For instance. What I have right now (very ugly) is: $email = $_POST['emal']; $first = $_POST['first']; $lastl = $_POST['last']; Then I work with $email, $first etc... I will have to do this for many, many variables which doesnt seem very efficient. I tried: foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) $key = $value; but that didnt work...but I can print them out. but even if this did work - this wouldnt handle the 2 sets of arrays I have. Does anybody have any snippets for this ... ???
