Curiosity question here really...
I am planning on adding an app that someone else created to my site, but they require register globals to be on for it to function.
I understand that Threads works better with it off and if it is on there is a potential security risk. I plan to read up more on what register globals is in more detail, but I was curious to hear what you all thought about running with it on.
Is it bad? Good? Don't know? Don't care?
And, is there a way to run it both on AND off on the same server, but for different apps? (I'm fairly sure the answer is no, but I thought I'd toss the question out there anyway.
)
Looking forward to your thoughts and comments.
