Undoubtedly my fault but, in response to urging from Adobe, I uninstalled Flash. First downside noticed is a PHP notice from Firefox about a site I use regularly (Movies airing on TV today..) Works OK on Edge and Bing! What's a PHP notice? Mike |

What's a PHP notice? A message on screen saying that PHP ain't working. I was getting that on tv24 for a day or so. On all browsers I tried. Now back to normal. |

Now back to normal. sounds like they had a server issue php is server side code and its bad coding if it pumps errors to the screen. Normally you do that only in development, after that they go to a log file -- Any fool can believe in principles - and most of them do! |

It's also bad practice to make a phpinfo() page accessible to the world, especially when it shows you're running an ancient version of PHP and have iffy options like register_globals turned on ... http://uky.edu/phpinfo.php |

Oops. That's *really* old. I cant even remember what they are...Oh. automatic assigned of GET variables. Well yes, its a bit - er - global. But provided you initialise all the variables you are using internally, then you cant use it to override internal variables. I still use something deprecated - short tags and magic quotes I think... simply because I always have, from when they were defaults. -- Its easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.
