hi andopes,
thanks for rply................but what is use of $globals and exactly where i can use this $globals??
i thing if you give me one example then it will be more helping me.............

We use globals to easily access special SugarCRM variables.

When you want to access a sugar config attribute you can do by two ways:

 global $sugar_config;
 
$variable = $sugar_config['some_attribute']; 
  

or directaly:

 $variable = $GLOBALS['sugar_config']['some_attribute']; 
  

Cheers

Just to complement, to know more details about what $GLOBALS contains, you could execute the follow:
<pre>
<?php print_r($GLOBALS) ?>
</pre>
