I'm not sure where to turn on this one, so starting here. In process of updating Drupal to latest version (6.1), I had a notice that my PHP register globals is set to on, when it should be set to off. (Seem to remember a situation a year or so ago, when the reverse had to be in effect!  ) Was poking about here and, while saw something on PHP.INI, I can't seem to find this in my hosted space. Or is this something you folks will have to change? Thanks!

Creating the php.ini file as described, adding in the line to indicate that variable should be set to off seems to have done the trick! Yeah, back when I first setup my account with LP, I know it had to be enabled to make things work. Boy, have things changed since then!

Next, I need to figure out if I can simply upgrade the PHP version in use on my site to 5.x without any worries for Drupal. That will mean that (finally!) there will be a closer match between what I'm using in my local install (thru XAMPP) and what is actually ON the server. If I keep going ahead with my plans for writing my own PHP modules for Drupal, that is!
