I belief that it use ON; but OFF i have read on some newsgroup that is preferable.
Will be one characteristic future?
Is it possible now to use coppermine with php.in register_globals=OFF ?
I believe you can use CPG with register globals off because the variables are now being called by $HTTP_POST_VARS['var']
It is more secure to turn off register globals.
TranzNDance is right - coppermine doesn't need register gobals to be turned on, the setting can be on or off - coppermine will work either way. For security reasons, you should set it to "off", that's true (but not related to coppermine at all).
