Though, the script produces expected output when uploaded to a production server. Where is the bug? Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

No bug. You cannot directly get the value for $param because you have 'register_globals' set off while this is good for security. Now you can get the value for 'param' by either $_REQUEST["param"] or $_GET["param"]. Hope this helps. Best Bao
