no contents in variable (post form)

[MeiAestro]

Hi!
This is how my index.php looks like:

---

<?php
echo $HTML_POST_VARS['password'];
?>
<form action=index.php method=post>
<input type=text name=password>
<input type=submit>
</form>

---

nothing more.

Unfortunately the "password"-variable is empty. Nothing is shown. I already tried a lot of modifications, but I got no more ideas.

Any ideas?

Regards,

MeiAestro

What version of PHP do you have and do you have register_globals on?

thank you,

$HTML_POST_VARS['password']; -> does not work

$_POST['password']; -> does work
