Problems sending variables after new installation

[arg_rommel]

Hello

I'm having problems with my PHP installation. I have a site online wich uses PHP and MySQL. I’ve tried to mirror that site on my PC so I’ve installed Apache2, PHP 4.2.3 and MySQL 3.23.53. PHP seems to parse the .php files fine but when I’ve try to send some parameters via a form to another php file, I’m not able to do it.
What could be the problem? Maybe I’m missing some configuration inside PHP?. I’ve ruled out a programming error because in my providers website (with another versions of PHP, MySQL and webserver) everything is fine.
Can somebody helps me or give me some hint about how to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance.

My guess is register globals is off, and the other server had it on.

What that means is if you're grabbing variables from a form, on your other server, you could call it by using $varname

If register globals is off, you'd need to call it by using $_POST['varname']

There are other predefined variables you'd need to change to have your site work also, but the best thing to do if you don't want to go through and change everything is in your php.ini file, set register globals to on.
