Subject: [PHP-DB] Variables coming from forms
Hi. I have posted this thread before but didn't come to a solution so I try
again.
I've installed Apache 2.0 and PHP 4.2.3 (both with the msi installers) on
Windows 2000 Pro.
The problem I have is that I get the message
Notice: Undefined variable: var_name in
every time I pass a new variable into another page whether this happens
using the URL or a form or even sessions.
The strange thing is that if I run phpinfo() in the same page (where the
variable is considered to be undefined) I see that my variables do exist in
the variables section of phpinfo.
For example. If I use a form to pass a variable in a php file like this:
form method=get action=var.php
input type=text name=var size=20 value=test
input type=submit value=Submit
/form
and have the var.php like this:
?php
print($var);
phpinfo();
?
I'll get the message:
Notice: Undefined variable: var in C:\Progr.\htdocs\var.php on line 2
while I'll also get a line like this in the variables section of phpinfo():
Variable Value
_GET[var] the value I typed before
I think this is really strange. Has anyone something to suggest?
Thanx in advance!!
Achilles
