what if register_globals is off?

[Teen0724]

How do i do a submit?

This is what i had (with register_globals off it doesn't work):

if ($submit)
{
// The below i know.
$var = $HTTP_POST_VARS['var'];
}
else
{
echo "<form action='$PHP_SELF' method=post>";
echo "<input type=submit name=submit value='Do the thing'>";
// simplified, don't want to post 16 lines of a table
}

when i run it, it doesn't work.

Use $HTTP_POST_VARS in php versions prior to 4.1.0 but after, use $POST and $GET. That should solve the problem.

if ($_POST['submit'])
{
// The below i know.
$var = $HTTP_POST_VARS['var'];
}
else
{
echo "<form action='$PHP_SELF' method=post>";
echo "<input type=submit name=submit value='Do the thing'>";
// simplified, don't want to post 16 lines of a table
}
