FORM DATA - PHP-4.2.2, Apache2.0.40

[bdcuser]

I've compiled php/apache on Linux RedHat 7.2 but a very simple form that submits data to a php script passes, or nothing, is received.

"register_globals" has been off and on but makes no difference.

The form :-

<FORM method=post action="form.php">
<input name=field1 value="some data">
</FORM>

and the PHP :-

echo $_POST["field1"];

Has there been some new config stuff i've missed?

Any ideas appreciated.

Hello,

I think you forgot to put the quotes around your "name". See below

<FORM method=post action="form.php">
<input name="field1" value="some data">
</FORM>

Bye

recently i've installed php4.2.2, apache 1.3.26, both on slackware8.1 and on win2000.
i've got the same problems. forms don't submit. besides, i cannot pass parameters from one page to another. they result with null values. when i enabled all errors, the script threw notices of uninitialized variables?!
i can't figure out whether this is from the php, or from some configuration of the apache.
if anyone could help, i'd appreciate it.
10x in advance
