Geeklog Forums

Could someone explain to me how do the following global variables work, where are they first initialized. $_USER, $_TABLES, $_HTTP_POST_VARS... I am having difficulties with the understanding of the following... thx

$_TABLES: This is a global array which contains the names of all the tables used in your Geeklog. The array is indexed by the tables' names. Example: $_TABLES['access'] = $_DB_table_prefix . 'access'; The values are set inside /system/lib-database.php. If you're running any plugins which contain separate tables, the developers most likely initialized those tables inside the config.inc file of their plugins. $_USER: This is a global array which contains info on users like their user id, username, etc. The values are set by the SESS_sessionCheck() function inside /system/lib-database.php $HTTP_POST_VARS: This is a predefined PHP array which is automatically global. The values are set when you pass a variable to the script using the HTTP POST method.
