Seedy:
Unfortunately, some webhosts deny the use of php.ini files, so you’d need to speak to their technical support.

I have an account on ohost.de with register_globals enabled. So i tried this but it has no effect. Drupal is installed in the root folder - could it be a reason for this?

Thanks a bunch, you probably solved me a TON of time; and to edit additional PHP parameters, insert a line break (press ‘Enter’) and type the next one out, using the same syntax as the first.

In a completely non-gay way, I love you! I’ve been trying to get this changed for awhile and this worked. Thanks.

Peeds, I am using a very affordable (the cheapest) linux webhosting solution from 1&1,
and Webplate’s solution above is the best… I added that line at the top of the default drupal .htaccess file

it looks like some of the basic options available in this situation are outlined here:
http://faq.1and1.com/scripting_languages_supported/php/18.html

look at it this way peeds, the support team says you cannot change the register_global to off…

well fine, but is there any way like webplates to just force the use of php5.0+ which defaults register_global to off?

I contacted Yahoo, and at the moment, there is no solution for this. Details in my post:

peeds

can you provide a link to main page for the yahoo web hosting you are using?
can you go over the process you are using?

I am curious to get this working for different providers, it shouldn’t be that hard!

Have you contacted Yahoo about your problem? They may be able to suggest something.

Has anyone tried this on Yahoo web hosting? Yahoo does not allow .htaccess file and creating the php.ini file did not make any difference for me.

If you’re at 1&1, try putting in the “.htaccess” file at drupal’s root:

#Forcer PHP5 chez 1and1
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

As PHP5 has “Register Globals” set to 0 by default at 1&1 !
