Ian While it would be more appropriate to post this in some forum or list that deals specifically with PHP --- I'd recommend the forums at phpbuilder.com or phpfreaks.com; both are friendly and have knowledgeable PHP coders present. However, this is absolutely the #1 FAQ re: PHP at present, and it couldn't hurt, in light of the continual growth in popularity of this scripting language, to address it here. PHP is now shipped with register_globals=OFF, as noted in your attached file. If you access the URL http://www.foo.com/foo.php?bar=baz, and then attempt this in the script "foo.php" echo $bar; ?> You will get no output. It is recommended that you code foo.php thus: echo $_GET['bar']; ?> which is the above case would echo "baz" to the browser. The workarounds are many; the one you are looking for is to change the register_globals directive in your php.ini to =ON and restart Apache. This is not recommended for several security reasons. As mentioned before, it's *recommended highly* that you begin converting your scripts to the latter usage.

Attached > is my php.ini, if someone could find a fault i would be most gratefull. register_globals is turned off for security reasons nowadays. You should be very careful of turning off register_globals on any machine exposed to the internet. The recommended way to access the CGI data is through the $_GET[] array (or $_POST[] for scripts that work by that action) Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
