Hi,
I have deicided it is about time I turned Register Globals off on my site, and so have been trying to do this on my local version. I have made the necessary changes according to this mod:
osCommerce 2.2ms2-060817 Register Globals Off Workaround for PHP4 and PHP5
This mod was created by Jiri Stavinoha from magic seo url.
Upon turning Register Globals off everything worked fine until I turned my Ultimate SEO URLs package on. When I do this the category and product pages display the error:
FATAL ERROR: register_globals is disabled in php.ini, please enable it!
It is only the pages that have had their urls modified by the Ultimate SEO URLs package that come up with this error. What really baffles me is that a site wide source code search for "FATAL ERROR: register_globals" reveals no matches.
It is also worth mentioning that I first used a different contribution to make my site compaitible with Register Globals off. The other contribution resulted in exactly the same errors.
My head is going scabby from all the scratching and so if anyone can help me out it would be much appreciated.
