We just moved a bunch of code from one web hosting company to another. Now, one of the pages no longer works. I have been sort of starting from scratch, and the first line is still not working. Am I using something that I shouldn't be? Here is a code snippet: if ($REQUEST_METHOD=='POST') { for(reset($HTTP_POST_VARS); $key=key($HTTP_POST_VARS); next($HTTP_POST_VARS)) { $this = addslashes($HTTP_POST_VARS[$key]); $this = strtr($this, ">", " "); $this = strtr($this, "<", " "); $this = strtr($this, "|", " "); $$key = $this; } } The part that's not working is the $REQUEST_METHOD=='POST' line. If I replace that with if ($login) (and $login is the name of the submit button on the form), it works fine. I am leary of using $login...any other suggestions? Thanks.
