ID: 26173 Comment by: kharris at lhinfo dot com Reported By: myle34 at hotmail dot com Status: Bogus Bug Type: Variables related Operating System: Windows XP Home PHP Version: 5.0.0b2 (beta2) New Comment:
I have a similar problem and here is the code I used to track it: cfg file <?php $gPlace = "http://www.lhinfo.com";; ?> run file <?php include ( 'cfgfile.inc' ); echo 'global space [' . $gPlace .]; function testme () { global $gPlace; echo 'testme [' . $gPlace . ']'; } testme (); Ouput: global space [http://www.lhinfo.com] testme [] I have even changed it to remove the config file and place the globals at the top of my file. The same problem occurs. Dumping $GLOBALS shows gPlace as a null string Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-08 01:53:32] myle34 at hotmail dot com Sorry, bad reporduce code.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-08 01:52:20] myle34 at hotmail dot com sorry, forgot to call Test() at the bottom of the reproduce code... simply put in Test(); at the bottom. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-11-08 01:49:16] myle34 at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ I'm not sure if this is a bug, but I haven't found anything so far stating that it isn't so...
