General PHP problem

Hi guys I know that this actually doesn't belong here but I had a question that I think has to do with installation and configuration. I volunteer at this FreeNet group and the SysAdmin there recently installed PHP 4 on an Apache server on a Solaris Box. But when I tried to test it, I found something amazing. The php commands worked fine (like print, echo, etc..) but the variables didn't show up. I tried sending variables from an HTML form to a php file to print the submitted values. It prints everything other than the variables. I tried including the variable inside the php file itself. It still didn't print. I'm puzzled. I think it should be config problem but what is? If anyone knows how to solve this problem, please let me know. Thanks Ali _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
