Whoa! Nasty and inefficient!!

I can understand if you decide initially to use a brute-force drop-in
replacement for register_globals, and leave modifying the rest of your code
until later, but really:

(i) Better:

        // _GET
        if (isset($_GET))
                foreach ($_GET as $key=>$val)
                {
                        $$key = $val;
                }

(ii) Even better:

        // _GET
        if (isset($_GET))
                extract($_GET);

Cheers!
