Re: RE: $PHP_SELF in Netscape PART 2

Ok, I feel like the big idiot now. I fixed the problem. It was because of the whole global bit. The ones that were not working were inside a function, the ones that were working were outside the function. I guess I ASSUMED (yeah we know what happens when you do that) that things like $PHP_SELF were always global.
