I would like to put some of my app config data in php.ini I tried just to add new values there and then get them with ini_get I get nothing displayed. D
ini_get
Have you looked at get_cfg_var( config_var )?
get_cfg_var( config_var )
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.get-cfg-var.php
I believe this is for retrieving custom variables from e.g. the servers php.ini file
