Hi,
I have one question about forms and php (which I use for Mysql too).
Do I need for variables from any form in html and method POST (then in =
php
script) to set these variables with:
$variable=3D$_POST['variable'];
For example:
<html>
<head>
<title> FORM</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action=3D"do_something.php" method=3D"POST">
Input something
<br>
<input type=3D"text" name=3D"variable">
<input type=3D"submit" value=3D"submit">
</FORM>
</body>
</html>
And then.in do_something.php
<html>
<head>
<title>DO SOMETHING</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$variable=3D$_POST['variable'];
echo "<br><b>Variable: </b>".$variable;
?>
</body>
</html>
Because I got some old scripts where I don=B4t have this setting.they =
worked
on MS Win2000 - PWS and PHP 4.0 but now - with Apache 2.2.6, PHP 5.2 on =
WIN
XP it doesn=B4t work.
Thank you for any advice.

RE: forms and method POST - variables
Well, it depends if you use an old version of PHP, in the latest version
both arrays $_POST and $_GET are used to get passed variables!!
I can't remember since what version PHP started to use these arrays!!

You might be using the old format of $HTTP_POST_VARS.
Do a search for that string and change it to
$_POST
and the same for $HTTP_GET_VARS (change to $_GET).
It could also be a side-effect of register_globals being enabled in
php4.0 and not in php5.2.
