Has there changed something in PHP-Coding since I've learned it a few years
before?
Since PHP v4.1.0 you access $name as $_GET['name'], unless you change
register_globals in php.ini to 'on' so it gets to how it used to be
before.
There seems to be a diffrence between clicking the send button
Hi,
I've updated to PHP 4.2.3 and wrote this simple Script:
?
if (isset($name)) {
echo Hallo $name;
}
else {
echo FORM action='test.php' method=get
input type=text name=name
input type=submit name=action value=sendit;
}
?
I would expect the following:
The site starts with the
register_globals defaults now to off. Use the superglobals instead.
?
if (isset($_GET['name'])) {
echo Hallo .$GET['name'];
}
else {
echo FORM action='test.php' method=get
input type=text name=name
input type=submit name=action value=sendit;
}
?

This beautifies it (even makes it a bit more secure), but one doesn't need it
really; should have worked without these changes, too. (Of course, it's
better to include these changes)

The value of name for the submit button is wrong - it should be the same
as the value you gave the

Yep, I've been going over this with John off-list, I learned something
new tonite. One thing about his script - it doesn't print the text
entered in the box, it only prints the work Hallo. To fix that would
require adding
. $name;
to the end of the echo statement.

I would quote get in method=get and end the /form for starters.
