new php ver and GET POST methods

[jObE]

Good day,
I had upgrade to php 4.2.2 and tried the new 4.2.3 but it seems that any variables passed by get or post methods don't work.
The variable is undefined so php says.

just simple ones like

test.php?variable=1

variable is undefined in test.php

when submiting a form none of the variables are passed.
this did all work in 4.1.1

anybody know what I can do about this?

I ran into a similar problem when I upgraded. It seems that the earlier versions of php used to use the setting in the php.ini of register globals = on. In the new versions, this is automatically turned off for security reasons. I wrote a lot scripts that need the 'register global' = on, so I did it anyway. This is just a suggestion, and I was told to convert all of my scripts to accept POST and GET variables like $test = $_POST["test"], where test is your variable from the form. Find your php.ini, and see what the setting is. I made the change regardless, mainly to save time re-writing my scripts. You may want to do the same. Hope this helps, I am still pretty new at this stuff.

HAHA nice job bud.
Its working perfect now.
register_globals = on worked like a charm.

Thanks guy.
