 Hi guys,
  
 This is weird to me..
 I got this script
 ---
 ?php
  
 if ($_GET[login] == 'forgot')
 {
 echo Sorry  I forgot my password;
 }
 else { echo you are good to go; }
  
 ?
 -
 when ran, it gives me this error
  
 
 Notice: Use of undefined constant login - assumed 'login' in
 G:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\index.php on line 3
  
 Notice: Undefined index: login in G:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\index.php on
 line 3 good to go
  
 What is this all about?
 The script look fine to me.
  
 Thanks in advance for your support

This is because you haven't quoted the array subscript -- PHP thinks you're
trying to refer to a constant called login, but on not finding that assumes
that you meant the string 'login' instead.  To suppress this notice, supply
the subscript correctly as a string:

if ($_GET['login'] == 'forgot')

 
 Notice: Undefined index: login in G:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test\index.php
 on line 3

This means that there was no login= parameter on the URL that called this
script.  If this is a permissible condition, you need to allow for it in
your code.  One way is simply to suppress the error message with the @
operator:

if (@$_GET['login'] == 'forgot')

Another is to do more explicit checking:

if (isset($_GET['login'])  $_GET['login'] == 'forgot')

Which you use is really down to personal preference.

Cheers!

Mike
