EDIT: Just noticed you double-posted this enquiry and it's been answered elsewhere and I made a faux pas on my suggestion for editing .htaccess, which I've since corrected!
Hello Gadge
I'm on shared hosting -many thanks for your reply- so if I plonk sorry paste: register_globals = on

onto .htaccess that's it? Is that all no particular place or brackets or anything? Sorry these questions must seem banal but if you don't know the answer ....
really appreciate your help I've been rummaging about all day I shall give it a go but copy and save the original first.
Cheers
