I have a simple form: <form action="addUser.php" method="post"> Enter Username: <input type="text" name="userName"><br><br> <input type="submit" value="Submit"> </form> Submits to addUser.php: <?php echo $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['userName']; ?> Returns this error in my browser: Notice: Undefined index: userName in E:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Test\addUser.php on line 11 Is there a setting in my php.ini file I need to change? register_globals is off, as that seems to be the preferred method now. But that's my issue, trying to access this external variable. $_REQUEST doesn't work. $_POST doesn't either. I have other scripts that it's working in, but I may not know what I'm saying here. PHP 4.2.3 on IIS (personal web server or whatever it's called) on WinXP Pro. Thanks for any help you can give.
