It worked before I installed PHP 4.2.2. I compiled php with the following command line: ./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs in my httpd.conf file, I have: <Limit POST> Order allow,deny allow from all </Limit> as part of my root directory, I thought that would make it work, but it didn't. Part of the script that I wrote called mysql and handed variables with nothing it. When I discovered that it was doing this, I echoed the values of the variables and they printed ''. I don't know whats wrong but it's probably something stupid I forgot to do, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Steve ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=18569&edit=1
