hi! I'm a total newbie to php4 or web design and i (of course) have a problem: i'm using apache 2.x and php4 as a module. so, when i use the GET method to pass data to my php script: script.php?x=5 i can't access it as a normal global variable: <?php print $x; ?> the only way i can get to it is: <?php print _GET['x'] ?> what's wrong? by the way, what's the difference between GET and POST methods anyway?
