Parameter Passing Troubles

Anon

I've setup Apache, PHP4 and MySQL on my linux Mandrake 8.0 machine. They all appear to work well together EXCEPTING the fact that I am not able to pass variable information between PHP pages. Here are a couple of pages that I am using to test this. Can anyone help? This is driving me nuts! Could it be the way I've set up Apache or PHP?

Thanks a lot,

Mark

start.php:

<BODY>
<FORM ACTION="final.php" METHOD=GET>
First Name: <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="firstname"><BR>
Last Name: <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="lastname">
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="GO">
</FORM>
</BODY>

final.php:

<BODY>
<p>Welcome,
<?php
echo "".$firstname." ";
echo $lastname;
?>
</p>
</BODY>

Since you are using method GET in your form, you could try:
echo $HTTP_GET_VARS["firstname"]." ".$HTTP_GET_VARS["lastname"];

And if you shold use method POST, it is
$HTTP_POST_VARS["variable"];
