Impossible to pass any variable from url's line into php script. filename.php?id=value I get "undefined variable" notice and variable est empty. Also $_get[id] is empty. Of course, record_globals is set in php.ini I use Win98 PWS4 PHP4.2.2 There is a bug somwhere. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-05-26 12:54:03] sander@php.net Sorry, but the bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.

Even though phpinfo() reports that register_globasl is set to 'On' the variables are never created. $_GET array also seems empty (it's the one who should hold my variables). A workaround is to switch to a previous version of PHP like 4.1.1. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=17434&edit=1
