Almost there

[Anon]

Okay I think I am getting there....
I will try and lay this out as easy as possbile. With the new version of PHP I have regitser_globals = Off. This PHP code works.

<?php
$which_db="beachbreeders";
if(!$link = mysql_connect("localhost", "sa", "password"))
die("No Connect to DB");
if(!mysql_select_db($which_db,$link))
die("No Select DB");
$query = "INSERT into tblBreeder (Name) VALUES ('$jason')";
$result = mysql_query($query,$link);
?>

When register_globals is turned On I get this error:
Notice: Undefined variable: jason in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\beachbreeders\test.php on line 21

Apparently is does not like the variable $jason.

Can anyone help
Thanks

Are you passing the variable $jason from another script because it's not declared in your code?

It is coming from a form on another page. Here is that code:
<FORM ACTION="test.php" METHOD="POST">
<input type="text" name="jason">
<input type="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>

Jason,
run the following script on the page you are passing the var to, it will show you whats actually been passed.

<?
while(list($key,$value)=each($HTTP_POST_VARS)){
if(is_array($value)){
while(list($key2,$value2)=each($value)){
echo "array $key: $key2 -> $value2<br>";
}
}else{
echo "$key -> $value<br>
";
}
}
?>
