J! CORE: How do I turn RG_EMULATION off?

Overview

PHP's register_globals option was a bad idea and has been deprecieated. Although Joomla's RG Emulation is safer than PHP's standard register_globals, it's best not to allow any form of automatic variable assignments. Beginning with PHP6, this will not even be an option. Note that poorly-written extensions may fail with register_globals OFF. Best advise: Don't use such extensions!

 

Joomla! 1.0.13

Beginning with the 1.0.13 release, Register Globals Emulation has been moved to the main configuration file and can be adjusting in the back end administrator interface.

 

Joomla! 1.0.12 and earlier

Edit the file, globals.php, found in the root directory of your Joomla! site. At about line 23 change:

 

define('RG_EMULATION',1)
to
define('RG_EMULATION',0)
