it's a warning, not an error...
you should check if it is set before you use it :

If(IsSet($id)) {
        Do something...
}

Subject: [PHP] Undefined variable


Dear list,

I test the  following script on local web server and it runs fine. But
when
I upload the script to the real web server I get the following
error/message, but the script works fine. Do you know why?

Here is the error/message I get:

Undefined variable : id in test.php on line 6


And here is the script file (test.php):

<html>
<body>
<?php
$db = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "root");
mysql_select_db("penpal",$db);
if ($id)

$result = mysql_query("select * from penpal where id = $id",$db);
$myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result);
printf("<b>ID:</b> %s\n<br>", $myrow["id"]);
printf("<b>Name:</b> %s\n<br>", $myrow["name"]);
printf("<b>Age/Sex/Location:</b> %s\n<br>", $myrow["asl"]);
printf("<b>Description:</b> %s\n<br>", $myrow["description"]);
printf("<b>Email:</b> %s\n<br>", $myrow["email"]);
} else {
$result = mysql_query("select * from penpal order by id desc", $db);
if ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
do {
   printf("<a href = \"%s?id=%s\">%s %s</a><br>\n", $PHP_SELF,
$myrow["id"],
$myrow["name"], $myrow["asl"]);
} while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result));
}   else {
echo "Sorry, no records";
   }
}
?>
</body>
</html>



The id field in my table has the attribute: id tinyint (4)

Thanks in advance
