PHP ini and .htaccess problem

[Bill_Gates]

Hello,

I got a problem, my newsletter management script calls for the below in my .htaccess file. I have tried placing it in a PHP.ini file and it doesn't work.??
Any Idea why?

php_value include_path .:"/home/--*--/public_html/mngr/"
php_value magic_quotes_gpc "off"
php_value track_errors "on"
php_value display_errors "on"
php_value allow_call_time_pass_reference "on"
php_value register_globals "on"

Basically I am not positive this is the problem but when I try to login
it doesn't work. Just sits there. Also this script is running in a directory
and that is where I have placed my .ini file is this right??

Thanks for anything

php.ini != .htaccess

you need to create a file called .htaccess with the content as specified and place it in the install directory.

you need to create a file called .htaccess with the content as specified and place it in the install directory.

Those values won't work in a .htaccess file due to PHPSuExec running on the servers.

php_value include_path .:"/home/--*--/public_html/mngr/"
php_value magic_quotes_gpc "off"
php_value track_errors "on"
php_value display_errors "on"
php_value allow_call_time_pass_reference "on"
php_value register_globals "on"

Whilst those values will work perfectly well inside a .htaccess file on a host that isn't running PHPSuExec, they won't work inside a php.ini file either. Try these instead inside a php.ini file.

include_path = ".:/home/--*--/public_html/mngr/"
magic_quotes_gpc = Off
track_errors = On
display_errors = On
allow_call_time_pass_reference = On
register_globals = On

Just a note though, using register_globals is a potential security risk for your scripts. Make sure you are processing any form data and data that your users can change correctly.
