Since $_POST is a superglobal, it should not lose scope inside a function() call. I could be wrong though. Also, curious if $args is empty.. what is $num and $message. ? Also.. you're calling a function in your return statement ? On 2/24/06, Jason Gerfen <jason.gerfen@scl.utah.edu> wrote:

Hi, are there some variables in your post array(aka are you sure that $_POST is not empty)? Normally this should works. Tanoor. 2006/2/24, Jason Gerfen <jason.gerfen@scl.utah.edu>:

I am not sure why this is not working. Aren't $_POST vars superglobals? I am trying to pass the $_POST array as an argument to a function and nothing is being returned. Any help is appreciated. return global_template( 3, $_POST, count( $_POST ), $message ); function global_template( $cmd, $args, $num, $message ) { echo "<pre>"; print_r( $args ); echo "</pre>"; } -- Jason Gerfen "When asked what love is: Love is the Jager talking." ~Craig Baldo -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Yep, I just double checked the $_POST vars prior to calling the function, ex: echo "<pre>"; print_r( $_POST ); echo "</pre>"; // This prints everything contained in $_POST without problem return global_template( 3, $_POST, count( $_POST ), $message, NULL ); function global_template( $cmd, $args, $num, $message, $errors ) { echo "<pre>"; print_r( $args ); echo "</pre>"; // This will not display anything in the $args->$_POST array? WTH? } -- Jason Gerfen "When asked what love is: Love is the Jager talking." ~Craig Baldo -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Sure, by calling return function_name( args ) it just sends vars based on conditional statements to a template type setup. The $num and $message vars are used by the template function to determine what and how to display the page contents is all. That is what I thought, $_POST is a superglobal, but it is loosing scope. Could it be that I am trying to pass $_POST from one function to another function be causing the problem you think? I have never ran into this before. -- Jason Gerfen "When asked what love is: Love is the Jager talking." ~Craig Baldo
