The variable is infact created, but rather than being $id
the variable will be $_GET['id']
because it is part of the $_GET array,

It looks like you are viewing a dos/windows file on unix. The ^M is
carriage return, which is needed as part of a dos/window end of line
sequence (carriage return, line feed) whereas unix uses just line feed.
Nope. They're UNIX-created and UNIX-modified. Does it matter if I downloaded
them
So which is it that will keep my files from having ^M after PHP is finished fopen(),
fputs(), and fclose() with them? \n, \r, and \n\r all seem to reinsert ^M at the ends
of all my lines.
Check that whole path leading up to the file is accessible (+x) and

No. I'm positive. I did the whole chmod 777 * -R at the public_html
