Hello
Im new to PHP and I have a little problem.
It seems that I always get a blank value from a query string.
This is my code
<a href="login.php?Action=Login">BLA </a>
and this is login.php
<tr>
<td width="100%" colspan="2">
<!--Main page-->
<?php
if (empty($Action))
{
include("MainPage.php");
}
else
{
if($Action == 'Login')
{
include("loginpage.php");
}
else
{
include("MainPage.php");
}
}
?>
</td>
</tr>
but the $Action is always empty.
ps. I´ve tried to change the variable name but no succes.
thanx
Palli

Have you set register_globals=On in your php.ini file? This is disabled by
default as it poses a security risk... in your case it would be better to
access your variable as $_GET['Action']

Your register_globals is probably turned off, and since you probably don't
have the ability to alter the ini file, try putting this at the top of your
code:
$Action = $_REQUEST['Action'];

Does php.ini get cached by Win2k or IIS 5? I make changes to it, restart
IIS, run phpinfo() and none of the stuff I changed is different.

How do you restart it ? Just click on stop/start or you actually click
restart server ? And which version of PHP are you using and tell the
location of your php.ini .

PHP: 4.3.0
I click Stop, then Click Start.
php.ini is in the C:\WINNT directory (C:\WIN_NT actually since this is where
my windows runs from).

If you use the ISAPI version of PHP (not php.exe)
start a dos shell
type 'net stop iisadmin' and then 'Y'
type 'net start w3svc'
If you restart IIS with the buttons, it won't work. If you use CGI (php.exe)
restarting the web server is not necessary.

Relocate your php.ini to C:\WIN_NT\SYSTEM32 and restart IIS with net stop
w3svc and net start w3svc.

I just installed php 4.3.0-win32, mysql-3.23.54-win and apache_1.3.27 on Win2000 in
hopes of
getting my feat wet. Well, I've yet to get past the phpinfo.php (test) page w/out
getting the "file not found" error.
After following the instructions from php.net, I thought that I was on target. The
last thing I tried was to add the... LoadModule mod_php4
c:/php/php-4.3.0-win32/sapi/php4apache.dll ...line to the config file after I copied
my DLL file into the system 32 directory. When I go to fireup apache, I get the error:
"can't locate API module structure 'mod_php4 in the
c:/php/php-4.3.0-win32/sapi/php4apache.dll ...
Any smart people out there who can lend a freshman a bit of help?
thanks,
Patrick

Did you copy the php4ts.dll file to c:\winnt\system32 (or windows or
whatever your w2k dir is)?
If that doesn't do the trick, you may have to do an 'AddModule mod_php4' in
the Apache config. I had to do this on a Win98 machine yesterday, but have
so far not had to load that line on any Win2k machine.

Hi
I don't know if it's a bug or what? But I've reached a problem using PHP 4.3
which I downloaded it yesterday.
It's about 'include' function, I can't include a php file using an absolute
address. For example, all my pages are in "D:\Inetpub\wwwroot". And when I
want to include a page with the address:
"D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\includes\a.php"
with the command:
"include '/includes/a.php';"
it can't be done, it says:
Warning: main(/includes/a.php) [function.main]: failed to create stream: No
such file or directory in D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\index.php on line 2
Warning: main() [function.main]: Failed opening '/includes/a.php' for
inclusion (include_path='.;D:\Inetpub\wwwroot') in
D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\index.php on line 2
And as you can see above I know about the 'include_path' and I've set it to
'D:\Inetpub\wwwroot'.
Now I'll be really grateful if anyone helps.

try like this:
include ('includes/a.php'); //without slash at the beginning
The slash at the beginning has a special meaning on all *nix systems (it's
the system root). You must not confund file system paths which you use in
PHP scripts with link paths in HTML (i.e. <a
href="/mainpage.html">Homepage</a>).

Hi.
I kind of got PHP syntax highlighting working within Visual Studio.NET
I've created a page, which mentions the steps you need to take to get it
working, as well as a screen shot. Everyone loves screen shots.
http://www.quake-au.net/php/php_and_vsdotnet.htm
Hope someone finds it useful apart from me.
Regards,
Sean

I know I can use Visual Studio to edit PHP files as plain text, but has
anyone seen any way of creating some sort of add-in, or macro or whatever,
which would do syntax highlighting on PHP files?

hi,
I want to configure PHP on windows 98 with Apache,
my question is that is there any limitations of functionality on windows 98 , if i do
so.
and if yes then what are the limitations.
because when we configure ASP on win98 , then there are some limitations in ASP.
