RE: [PHP] What the hell is wrong???

Wow...believe it or not.. you solved it.. register_globals was OFF!! What i wonder is.. when i was working with php previously, this never happened. and i had never manually changed this to ON before.. is it the new versions in which is it OFF by Default?? Thanks again, very much so.. T.
