Very Basic question

[mshen]

Hi
I write a very simple PHP code like this.only one line.

<?php

echo $var1;

?>

and I save it in demo.php file.

I open broswer like http://localhost/demo.php?var1=12345.I get a screen that display "12345" in IIS,but I get empty in Apache.I do not know why it do not work in Apache.

I use windows 2000,I install IIS5 and Apache server with different port.I do not know why I can not pass variable in Apache.please tell me how to change the config files in Apache or php.ini.

Please let me know how to solve the problem.Thanks a lot.

I bet it works if you put echo $_GET['var1']. If the register_globals is set to off, then the $var1 is not global.

Hi Cahva,

echo $_GET['var1'] is work!!!.

Please let me know where I can change register_globals and set it to "on".Please give me the file name I can modify.

Thanks a lot.

i'm not sure exactly what file it is in windows, but my initial suggestion is to look for a file called "php.ini".
