<?
    if ($a==1) {
        echo "True.";
    } else {
        echo "False.";
    }
?> When I called the script http://localhost/show.php?a=1, the response is "False.". Is there any problem in my script or the setting of my Apache server is crashed? Can anyone help me? Thank you.

if this is a new installation of php 4.3.x then by default the register_globals are off this means you need $_REQUEST['a'] to access your variable
