You need to make an ALIAS and add the setting to this alias. Open the file php.ini in a text editor, browse for the beginning of the Alias section and add the following lines: "

I was about to say, what the hell you're talking about. But then I read that section of the manual and understood why.
That is an error in the manual. It was supposed to reference httpd.conf for Apache.
If you are running your own server, edit php.ini, search for register_globals = Off and turn it On.
Restart Apache and it should be fine from there..

I'm lost you completely.

Did you restart apache. There isn't a need to modify httpd.conf if there is only one domain.
Please refer to apache/php documentation for further actions.
