For > some reason the get/post doesn't work. What can it be? Try checking register_globals setting in php.ini file. It should be set to on if you want to use post, get, etc environment variables as globals. Maybe in php-4.0.2 it is turned off by default. I've found an interesting line in http://www.php.net/manual/html/language.variables.predefined.html: "Note: As of PHP 4.0.3, track_vars is always turned on, regardless of the configuration file setting." I'm assuming they meant "PHP 4.0.2" and maybe at the same time they disabled register_globals. Jacek Bochenek --- "Smile, tomorrow will be worse!"
