Not passing url variables (eg script.php?name=Matthew)

Hi there,

I have installed the latest Windows binary of PHP on my Windows system, with Sambar server.

It all works fine, EXCEPT for one thing - I can't pass URL-line variables.

If I call the script "test.php?name=Matt" for example, and the script is...

<?php

print "name is: $name";

.... it just outputs

name is:

I have checked all posts, all settings, I don't know what to do next !

Please help if you can.

Thanks a bundle.

Matt

I had register_globals = Off in php.ini

If set to On - works fine

Sorry to waste your time.

Thank you - I did exactly the same - had obvious fault blindness but your post gave me the answer that I needed!

Back to happy coding...
