Ok, with register globals on, this works ('order' being a php object):
session_name('name');
session_register('order');
$order->print_something();
With with register globals off, this fails:
session_name('name');
$order = $_SESSION['order'];
$order->print_something();
Get the errors:
PHP Notice: Undefined variable: _SESSION
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function: print_something()
Meaning the _SESSION arr is not recognized and the $order obj variable has
not been passed.
What am I missing?
