Re: IIS5 and PHP4 problems

Hi there! I have a problem with the IIS5. After I have installed PHP4 following the instruction on php.net, everything works fine instead of handling forms. Each variable deliverd by a form (e.g. test.php?id=5) is empty (id=="" is true). I imagine that the release notes to the version of php you have loaded will inform you that, by default, register_globals is off. I answered this one for another poster yesterday and I was not the only one. People do not seem to look at previous posts or archives or faqs before posting.

You need to either turn register_globals on in php.ini or, better still, use $_GET['var'] to get the values of GET variables or $_POST['var'] for POST variables. HTH Chris
