Re: Re: Can't get URL or POST variables

Thanks Christian. Now i understand why a PHP script worked fine on my ISP but not on my local server. My ISP runs with register_globals=On (probably due to so much confusion in their user base about the 4.0 change). When i get time, i'll rewrite my scripts to handle the (more secure) register_globals=Off setting. --- At 01:43 AM 7/15/02 +0200, Christian Stadler wrote:

It is working mostly, since i can run this script: <?php phpinfo(); ?> But i can't get the variables passed in via a URL or POST to be set properly. When i run this test script, tst.php: <?php print "$tstvar"; ?> via http://localhost/tst.php?tstvar=tstvalue i get this Notice: Notice: Undefined variable: tstvar in tst.php on line 1 instead of the expected output: tstvalue The same thing happens when i try to POST data into a .php script. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, ted -- PHP Install Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
