Re: PHP 4.1.0 Install on Windows 98/PWS 4.0

Regarding the variables, although the new version is backwards compatible with the way variables were passed in the old version, I found I could only use the $_POST['variable'] to get the variable. I think you might need to tinker with the new php.ini file and check the register global variables thingy in there. If you want to know about the new syntax read the release notice. Interestingly, is it true that the new way in which the variables are passed from forms to scripts could be done in a similar way in the older versions but using http_global_vars (or something like that) and turning off the register global variables in php.ini??
