Hi, no errors, however here's my update. It turns out my account was migrated to another server, that's why it wasn't working, but it all works now. However I still need help. Please read on

Here's how my system works: One script writes a txt file to a specific folder (with permissions 755). It also sends it as an e-mail. When the e-card is viewed, the other script tells the e-card to get info from the text file.

In php 5.3 I enable Register_Globals in the php.ini, however in php 5.4, I added the following script to both my own scripts to make it work (emulated Register_Globals):

Code: Select all

register_globals( 'NGPCFRES' );

function register_global_array( $sg ) {
    Static $superGlobals    = array(
        'e' => '_ENV'       ,
        'g' => '_GET'       ,
        'p' => '_POST'      ,
        'c' => '_COOKIE'    ,
        'r' => '_REQUEST'   ,
        's' => '_SERVER'    ,
        'f' => '_FILES'     ,
        'n' => '_SESSION'
    );
    Global ${$superGlobals[$sg]};
    foreach( ${$superGlobals[$sg]} as $key => $val ) {
        $GLOBALS[$key]  = $val;
    }
}
function register_globals( $order = 'gpc' ) {
    $_SERVER;       //See Note Below
    $_ENV;
    $_REQUEST;
    $order  = str_split( strtolower( $order ) );
    array_map( 'register_global_array' , $order );
}


So things are working in the meantime, however I'd like to totally go off the Register_Globals if possible. That's where I'll need help. I will attach two txt files to this post, they are the two scripts that make everything work.

depending on server configuration, you should have access to the relevant superglobals. Don't use $_REQUEST though, use specific $_GET or $_POST
