For example, you need register_globals set to Off in a directory. For this purpose you should log in your cPanel and go to the File Manager. There navigate to the directory where you'd like this setting applied. In this directory create a file php.ini containing:
register_globals = off
Naturally, if you'd like register_globals turned on you should specify:
register_globals = on
The above works perfectly fine with most web hosting companies, including HostUpon.
However, there are two exceptions:
- some important PHP limits cannot be changed, for example memory_limit and max_execution_timeout. Setting different values than the administratively assigned will endanger the overall shared server performance.
- PHP might be compiled as an Apache module. In this case try using a .htaccess file containing:
php_value name value
For example, if you'd like to turn off register_globals you have to specify:
php_value register_globals off
