The long array names ('register_long_arrays' in the php.ini) is set to Off by default for PHP 5.0.x. This is talking about $HTTP_GET_VARS and related HTTP array variables. You can set it to On, or use the shorter versions ($_GET, $_POST, $_ENV, $_SERVER, etc.). It's recommended that you use the shorter versions, not only because it will increase performance, but also because they are visible from within your function definitions; the longer ones aren't. |

Oh wow... I didn't realize I could hate PHP even more than I already did. |

It's improving upon it's self without throwing users of the previous version out in the rain. Not sure what's to hate there. Yes all the outdated things that linger around are annoying, but keep the language as widely usable as possible. |
