AllowGlobal

Specifies websites that may define and use global code.

Synopsis

The "website_name" is expected to be the symbolic name assigned to the website using the Catalog directive.  The default is blank (no websites are granted global access).

Scope

This directive is only available for use in the global (interchange.cfg) configuration file, and will affect all websites running under the Interchange installation.  It will not work in a website's local (catalog.cfg) configuration file. 

Description

Specifies website identifier(s) that may define subroutines and UserTags that can operate with the full permissions that are granted to the user ID running the Interchange instance.  Don't use this directive unless the website owner is trusted implicitly.

The AllowGlobal directive also enables access to GlobalSub subroutines that have been restricted with the AdminSub directive.

Warning Using AllowGlobal is never necessary, and is always dangerous in a multi-user environment.  Its use is strongly discouraged.

Note If you want to use Subs or UserTags within the [perl] tag, you will have to set both the subs and global parameters true when calling the [perl] tag.
