[Resolved] help urgently needed with $_SERVER['query_string'];

[dotty]

Hi

I need to pass a user id via url parameter. The url is like this: http://www.mysite.com?id23 - so I can't use $_request

I've been trying to use the following:

$user = $_SERVER['query_string']; 
echo $user;

but it doesn't echo!

How can I extract everything after the ? and create a session to monitor that users movements. By the way, I've no way of changing the url string.

Help REALLY appreciated!
