#22663 [NEW]: Variable $ID contains 3 initially

From: public at hverdag dot dk Operating system: Windows 2000 PHP version: 4.3.1 PHP Bug Type: Variables related Bug description: Variable $ID contains 3 initially Why on earth does the variable $ID contain the value 3 on a totally blank page where neither other script has been processed or session started???! This is not so big a problem in itself, but if I use $ID as a session variable it even overwrites this value - now, THIS is a problem! I cannot find any place where it says that one shouldn't use this variable name. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=22663&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22663&r=gnused
