passing variable via url

using PHP 3.x on Linux, I've always been able to pass along a variable like http://www.domain.com/index.php3?foo=bar and then I could print out this with something like echo $foo; would print out "bar" I've recently installed the latest PHP4 onto a Windows2000 server, I'm trying the same thing here, a simple test, and echo $foo; gives me nothing however including a PHPINFO() on the page displays this: HTTP_GET_VARS["foo"] bar I'm I missing something here ?
