- track_vars
boolean
If enabled, then Environment, GET, POST, Cookie, and Server
variables can be found in the global associative arrays
$_ENV,
$_GET,
$_POST,
$_COOKIE, and
$_SERVER.
Note that as of PHP 4.0.3, track_vars is always turned on.
- arg_separator.output
string
The separator used in PHP generated URLs to separate arguments.
- arg_separator.input
string
List of separator(s) used by PHP to parse input URLs into variables.
Note:
Every character in this directive is considered as separator!
- variables_order
string
Set the order of the EGPCS (Environment, GET, POST, Cookie,
Server) variable parsing. The default setting of this
directive is "EGPCS". Setting this to "GP", for example,
will cause PHP to completely ignore environment variables,
cookies and server variables, and to overwrite any GET
method variables with POST-method variables of the same name.
See also register_globals.
- register_globals
boolean
Tells whether or not to register the EGPCS (Environment, GET,
POST, Cookie, Server) variables as global variables. For example;
if register_globals = on, the URL
http://www.example.com/test.php?id=3 will produce
$id. Or, $DOCUMENT_ROOT from
$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']. You may want to turn
this off if you don't want to clutter your scripts' global scope with
user data. As of PHP 4.2.0,
this directive defaults to off. It's preferred to
go through PHP Predefined Variables
instead, such as the
superglobals:
$_ENV, $_GET,
$_POST, $_COOKIE, and
$_SERVER. Please read the security chapter on
Using register_globals
for related information.
Please note that register_globals
cannot be set at runtime (ini_set()). Although, you can
use .htaccess if your host allows it as described
above. An example .htaccess entry:
php_flag register_globals on.
- register_argc_argv
boolean
Tells PHP whether to declare the argv & argc variables
(that would contain the GET information).
See also command line.
Also, this directive became available in PHP 4.0.0 and
was always "on" before that.
- register_long_arrays
boolean
Tells PHP whether or not to register the deprecated long
$HTTP_*_VARS type
predefined
variables. When On (default), long predefined PHP
variables like $HTTP_GET_VARS will be defined.
If you're not using them, it's recommended to turn them off,
for performance reasons. Instead, use the superglobal arrays,
like $_GET.
This directive became available in PHP 5.0.0.
- post_max_size
integer
Sets max size of post data allowed. This setting also affects
file upload. To upload large files, this value must be larger
than upload_max_filesize.
If memory limit is enabled by your configure script, memory_limit also affects
file uploading. Generally speaking,
memory_limit should be
larger than post_max_size.
When an integer is used, the
value is measured in bytes. You may also use shorthand notation as described
in this FAQ.
- gpc_order
string
Set the order of GET/POST/COOKIE variable parsing. The
default setting of this directive is "GPC". Setting this to
"GP", for example, will cause PHP to completely ignore cookies
and to overwrite any GET method variables with POST-method
variables of the same name.
- auto_prepend_file
string
Specifies the name of a file that is automatically parsed
before the main file. The file is included as if it was
called with the include() function, so
include_path is used.
The special value none
disables auto-prepending.
- auto_append_file
string
Specifies the name of a file that is automatically parsed
after the main file. The file is included as if it was
called with the include() function, so
include_path is used.
The special value none
disables auto-appending.
Note:
If the script is terminated with exit(),
auto-append will not occur.
- default_mimetype
string
- default_charset
string
As of 4.0b4, PHP always outputs a character encoding by default in
the Content-type: header. To disable sending of the charset, simply
set it to be empty.
- always_populate_raw_post_data
boolean
Always populate the $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA variable.
- allow_webdav_methods
boolean
Allow handling of WebDAV http requests within PHP scripts (eg.
PROPFIND, PROPPATCH, MOVE, COPY, etc.).
This directive does not exist as of PHP 4.3.2.
If you want to get the post data of those requests, you have to
set
always_populate_raw_post_data as well.
