Hey there, i have this form:

<FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="upload.php" METHOD=POST>
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000">
<input type="File" name="userfile" size="30" maxlength="255">
<input type="hidden" name="test" value="this is a test">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="upload">

when i call $test from my php file.. It's empty! This is how i start my PHP file:

---

<?php
print $test."\n";

?>

I am using PHP 4.2.1, standard install, server i am using it on is IIS.

STUPID!!!!!!!!!!! (It's a joke, PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY)

Use this:

$_POST["test"];

like when you SHOULD HAVE USED

$HTTP_POST_VARS["test"];

$POST,$GET,$_SESSION store the data you need. They are associativ (text-indexed) arrays. Reference the index with the name of your HTML var.

Hope this helps

Nope does not work 🙂

I have IIS (win2k) with a new PHP 4.1.2 installation.

This is my entire PHP file:

<?php
echo($HTTP_POST_VARS[\"test\"]);

?>

And this is how i call it:
test.php?test=test

[flipis]

try this:
<?
echo $HTTP_GET_VARS["test"];
?>

test.php?test=test is a GET request.

Hpe it helps you
