Hi all,
A freelance developer has designed a site for a client of mine with a contact form that worked on their testing server, but will not work with the client's hosting service. The developer has asked if it is possible to turn 'register globals on', on the hosting server. The host has advised they don't to this, it is a setting that is locked down.
Can anyone tell me:
a) should the developer be able to design a form without this functionality?
b) is it unusual for the hosting company to have this disabled by default?The page in question is the 'Contact Us' section of http://www.afdfin.com.au

just get them to change the form to a format the server accepts. between php / asp / java / etc etc there are a million options out there. the client may need to pay authors corrections for the extra time depending on the quote / fee proposal.

Sending a form from flash should not involve any heavy duty PHP and I don't think having register globals turned on should be required. If the form only sends an email this is the kind of problem that should be able to be fixed in an hour or two. Not the programmers fault but not the right way to do things either.
