Should have checked the manual. http://us4.php.net/register_globals I have a script that simply echo's a query string variable to the screen. This works on a previously configured linux box with PHP4.0, but not on a newly created Windows 2003 box with PHP5.0. Here is the URL sample: http://www.blahblahblah.com/hello.php?pg=1 Here is the page sample: ? echo $pg; ? On the Windows box, I get Undefined variable. $10 will get you $20 that register_globals is OFF. -- John C.

See the register_global my friend maybe it is set off - Original Message - From: Greg Deckler [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: php-general@lists.php.net Sent: Monday, April 18, 2005 10:10 AM Subject: [PHP] Windows and Query String I have searched for this in the FAQ's, News Archives and Googled for it and cannot seem to find the answer. Please help. I have a script that simply echo's a query string variable to the screen.

Here is the URL sample: http://www.blahblahblah.com/hello.php?pg=1 Here is the page sample: ? echo $pg; ? On the Windows box, I get Undefined variable. I suspect that something in my php.ini is not set correctly to allow this but I cannot find what that is. Now, I realize that I should probably NOT be using the variable directly but rather initializing it via _GET or by some other method because using it directly makes the code nearly impossible to read. But, I am trying to convert some existing code not written by me that runs on this Linux box to a Windows machine and whoever wrote this made RAMPANT use of this method of accessing query string parameters. Thus, I am stuck having to get this to work until I can find about 50,000 hours to conver all of the code. Any assistance is GREATLY appreciated. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
