Cannot assign value to variable

[Anon]

I cannot assign a value to a variable in php4.

The following url is running on php4:
http://beta.pbbc.com/bibleStudies/form2.php

The following url is running on php3:

http://www.lifesteps.org/form2.php

Both links contain identical code. When you go to the page you are presented a form. You enter data and that form calls on form3.php which does nothing but print that data by using the echo $testing php command. The php3 version does it and the php4 does not. Until I get this resolved I can't post data to mysql via forms or anything because my sql commands contain variables.

The variable prints right before the sentence "This is not working you moron" - referring to me not you guys🙂 .

The code on form3.php page is:

<?php

echo $testing;

echo 'it is not working you moron'

?>

Please help.

Thanks,
Jared Hawkins

I fixed the problem by finding another person in this forum with similar situation. Thanks.

register_globals have to be turned On on the php.ini file.
