The variable is infact created, but rather than being $id
the variable will be $_GET['id']
because it is part of the $_GET array,
so if you had output2.php?name=fred
the variable to acsses the word fred would be $_GET['name']
Hope that helps

Subject: [PHP] Passing of querystrings
Hi,
I am new to php and trying to learn it for some university work. The
problem I am having is this:
I have read on a webmonkey tutorial that when you call a php file and
name-value querystrings are automatically created into variables in your
script.
I have a example url : http://localhost/output2.php?id=1
Which I hoped would make a variable, $id, and set the value to 1. However
it doesnt work, the variable is not created.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have Appache 2.0.48, MySQL
4.0.17,
and PHP 4.3.4
Many Thanks
Ryan Francis
